    A Dream Come True! This Friday, I’m thrilled to tick off a huge bucket list item—taking the TEDxPerth stage at none other than Kings Park! As one of the world’s largest inner-city parks, Kings Park isn’t just a backdrop; it’s a living example of biodiversity conservation, embodying the very work I’ll be sharing. I ll share story of hope, a story very close to my heart: the work we’re doing at DNA Zoo to support Earth’s biodiversity. Imagine this: every 10–20 minutes, one species vanishes forever. That’s about 150 species lost daily—animals, plants, unique beings we may never even know existed. And here’s the real kicker: we’ve only identified about 2 million of an estimated 8–9 million species on the planet. It’s like being handed an encyclopedia of life with most of the pages still blank. We’re in a race to understand, conserve, and preserve. But AI combined with DNA Data, new generation genomic tools and open source science gives us hope—it’s helping us capture the DNA “blueprints” of species faster than ever, even those on the edge of extinction. In my TEDx talk, set against the backdrop of Kings Park’s remarkable native bushland, I’ll share how we’re leveraging AI to bridge the gap between knowledge and action, blending technology and conservation to write the stories of countless species before it’s too late. TEDxPerth Salon: Our Future With #AI will feature three speakers, all exploring ways that AI can transform our world for the better. Join me, whether live or in spirit, as we explore how the choices we make today could help rewrite the future for species tomorrow. 🐾 #TEDxPerth #KingsPark #Biodiversity #AI #Conservation The University of Western Australia #SuperstarsofSTEM Science & Technology Australia WA Women's Hall of Fame Women in Technology WA Inc.
