Description

View the full show notes on the Amplifying Research website: https://www.amplifyingresearch.com/podcast/1-prof-andrew-pask-on-becoming-the-thylacine-guy-and-raising-40m   Today's episode is a deep dive with Prof Andrew Pask — the thylacine guy. He's head of the TIGRR lab at the University of Melbourne, and he's already raised around $40 million to support his lab's work to de extinct the thylacine. As you'll hear, he's incredibly passionate about conducting comms and engagement and our conversation touches on everything from how his side hustle turned into a $40M research endeavour, to dealing with criticism and when things go wrong, and the importance of community engagement. It's a great conversation, so enjoy and stay tuned for next week's episode with A/Prof Jen Martin. We'll be releasing weekly for the first 12 episodes, and then switching to every other week to give us a bit more time to release some of the other exciting Amplifying Research projects we have in store for you.
