On todays National Talk Black via NIRS – National Indigenous Radio Service we have:
Deb Ross , CEO, Ajiin Carbon monitoring Hub, talking about Ajiin mastering fire management on Cape York. The ongoing challenge of monitoring and responding to persistent wildfires on Cape York is in good hands with the establishment of Australia’s first Carbon Management Hub (CMH) by Traditional Owners in the region. Their team boasted more than 30 years of combined experience in cultural burning, carbon abatement and fire management with a range of services which included fire implementation plans, risk analysis, compliance training, and various fire management training programs.
Chasten Hunter, Tropical North Queensland Training Awards Finalist, talking about the prestigious Tropical North Queensland awards. Gunggandji man Chasten Hunter has been honoured as a finalist in the Tropical North Queensland Training Awards, recognising his exceptional contributions to the conservation of the Great Barrier Reef. Chasten is a contender for the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Student of the Year award, following his completion of a Certificate III in Conservation and Ecosystem Management.
Associate Professor Adeel Razi, Study Co-author, talking about a First-of-its-kind test that can predict dementia up to nine years before diagnosis. An international research team led by Queen Mary University of London has developed a new method for predicting dementia with over 80 per cent accuracy and up to nine years before diagnosis. The new method provides a more accurate way to predict dementia than memory tests or measurements of brain shrinkage, two commonly used methods for diagnosing dementia.
