In this episode of Hearing Architecture, we're joined by Nikos Kalogeropoulos and Nectar Efkarpidis of Molonglo, in a conversation co-hosted by Dr Sally Farrah. Nikos and Nectar are not registered architects, but Molonglo's work has had a profound influence on the way people think about development, culture and place, particularly in Canberra, where projects such as NewActon and Dairy Road have shown how architecture can move beyond individual buildings to shape whole precincts, communities and ways of living. This conversation explores the values, risks and long-term thinking behind that work. We discuss what it means to create places that are generous, layered and culturally alive, how architecture can be supported through unconventional models of development, and why the quality of the built environment depends not only on architects, but on clients, collaborators and the systems that allow good ideas to survive. It's a conversation about stewardship, ambition, design culture and the difficult art of making places that feel as though they could only belong where they are. Our sponsor Brickworks also produces architecture podcasts hosted by Tim Ross.

For 65,000 years before computers, satellites, and scientific journals, Australia's first peoples were reading tides, stars, seasons, animal behaviour, currents, and ecosystems with extraordinary precision. Yet until recently, their knowledge was not formally considered alongside Western Science.Now, more research and conservation organisations are recognising that in order to protect places like the Great Barrier Reef, not only do we need better technology and data, but we also need to listen more carefully to the voices of the world's oldest continuous living cultures.This week we're joined by Libby Evans-Illidge from the Australian Institute of Marine Science for an inspiring chat about bridging the divide between two cultures, one step at a time.In this special Reconciliation Week episode, we'll discover how making space for a knowledge system different to our own, can help us better understand and conserve our environment, while also rebuilding our connection with each other.Thumbnail Image: The 'dark emu,' a dark spot in the milky way, with its long neck extended upward in the night sky, was more than just a story.

The full Talking Space team gathers around the microphone once more to share their thoughts and reactions to the Artemis II lunar flyby and how the 10-day mission was perceived back on Earth, especially those who seldom think about NASA. The panel examines next steps for the Artemis program, reviews highlights from NASA's recent Ignition event, weighs whether a new space race with China is underway, and considers what the future may hold given the implications of the 2027 NASA Budget. Australia has the capabilities to be a major space sector player, but lacks a cohesive national space policy. Isobel Haddow of The Space Industry Association and our resident space-policy expert, Dr. Kat Robison, crafted a brief for the United States Studies Center outlining the situation and what practical steps Australia can take.

Apologies for mistake in the previous upload. As AI continues to reshape how we work, it is also beginning to influence how we think, decide, and lead.In our recent Coaching Café, it was no surprise that we identified AI as one of the most significant trends shaping coaching and leadership conversations in 2026. The question is no longer “Is AI relevant?”—it's “What should we, as coaches and leaders, be paying attention to?”AI is changing how information is accessed, how decisions are made, and how quickly solutions can be generated. At the same time, it raises important questions about thinking, judgment, learning, and human capability.This is where coaching becomes even more important.Coaching helps individuals move beyond quick answers to deeper thinking. It supports reflection, challenges assumptions, and ensures that AI enhances—rather than replaces—human capability.Join Natalie and expert panelist Lu Ngo, Head of Digital Skills Programs, Australian Institute of Management (AIM) as we kick off a new series of the Coaching Café and explore what AI means for coaching practice and leadership.You'll walk away with:✔️ A clear understanding of how AI is influencing coaching and leadership conversations ✔️ What coaches and leaders should be focusing on in an AI-enabled workplace ✔️ The risks of over-reliance on AI—and how coaching mitigates them ✔️ Practical ways to integrate AI awareness into your coaching conversationsTranscripts can be found here: Thanks for listening!

Neil Craig is the first guest we've brought back into the arena — and for good reason. He's 70, coaching leaders at the Australian Institute of Sport, and still the most curious person in any room he walks into.Former AFL senior coach at Adelaide, performance coach with England Rugby and the Wallabies, and a wonderful mentor of mine.We go deep on expectations — the most dangerous word in high performance — and what happens when your behaviour drifts under pressure. Neil tells the story of a CEO brave enough to say, "You're not the coach we appointed." We talk about coaching effort, the critical friend every leader needs, and why the best coaches never stop being coached themselves. A game never won.Notebook ready.Play on.

This week on Radio Architecture, Ilana's guest is Michael Bialek. SJB founding director Michael Bialek started his career working with families wanting to build special homes, with real meaning to them.

We're going to be talking all about improving induction – for both early career teachers and school leaders. Our guest today is Tim Bullard, CEO of AITSL – the Australian Institute for Teaching and School Leadership. We're talking all about their latest Spotlight evidence summaries. Part 1 – Improving Induction for Early Career Teachers explores evidence-based approaches to strengthening teacher induction. It outlines the Guidelines for the Induction of Early Career Teachers in Australia and examines how well-designed induction programs improve teacher wellbeing, retention, and professional growth. Part 2 – Improving Induction for School Leaders explores the benefits of good induction for school leaders, shares how leaders arrive in a leadership role via 3 different pathways, and provides evidence-informed practices to structure induction programs for new school leaders. , We dive into some of the findings from those Spotlights. There are plenty of practical tips – around mentoring, support and adapting the induction for your specific school context. Host: Rebecca Vukovic Guest: Tim Bullard

Today on Building Better Basketball, we're joined by someone operating right at the intersection of performance science and high-performance leadership - Rodney Siegel. Rod is currently the High Performance Manager for Wheelchair Basketball at Basketball Australia, where he leads the performance environment for national teams with a clear focus on international podium success. Before stepping into basketball, Rod spent years across the Australian high-performance system - including leadership roles with the Australian Institute of Sport and the Victorian Institute of Sport - driving connection across performance support networks and working across sports like rowing, athletics, sailing, and more. He's also been on the ground at the highest level of global sport, playing a key role in athlete preparation and recovery for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games. What makes this conversation unique is Rod's lens - he's not coming from a traditional basketball pathway, but from a system-wide, interdisciplinary performance background. So today, we dive into what basketball can learn from the broader high-performance system, how coaches can better connect with performance staff, and what it really takes to build environments that maximise athlete potential.

Welcome to Pulse: Amplify, where we sit down with the leaders and changemakers shaping the future of health. A recent Nature Medicine study went viral after reporting that ChatGPT Health under-triaged more than half of emergency cases when tested using clinician-written scenarios. The finding raised serious concerns about whether consumer AI tools are safe for medical triage.But researchers from Macquarie University's Australian Institute of Health Innovation took a closer look at the study design and suspected the results might reflect the evaluation format rather than the AI's clinical capability.In this episode of Pulse Amplify, Louise and George speak with David Fraile Navarro about their follow-up study testing five frontier AI models across more than a thousand trials. Their research suggests that when AI systems are evaluated using more natural, patient-style interactions rather than exam-style prompts, triage performance improves significantly.The discussion explores why prompt structure, forced answer formats, and restrictions on clarifying questions can dramatically alter model behaviour, and why designing realistic evaluation methods is essential as millions of people begin using AI for health advice.The conversation also examines broader questions: How should AI triage tools be evaluated? What role should clinicians play in AI-mediated care? And what do patients need to know before trusting AI with health decisions?ReferencesRamaswamy A. et al. (2026). ChatGPT Health performance in a structured test of triage recommendations. Nature Medicine. https://www.nature.com/articles/s41591-026-04297-7Fraile Navarro D, Magrabi F, Coiera E. (2026).

Our oceans are 40% more acidic than pre-industrial times, making it harder for corals, molluscs, crustaceans and plankton to build their calcium carbonate skeletons. It's a crucial planetary boundary we've crossed — threatening reefs, fisheries, tourism, food security, and coastal communities. And almost no one is talking about it.So what's driving it? What does it mean for the Great Barrier Reef? And what can we do?This week on Word on the Reef, we're joined by Dr Katharina Fabricius from the Australian Institute of Marine Science — a global leader in coral reef ecology and ocean acidification research — to unpack the science and the solutions.Read Dr Fabricius's research: Volcanic bubbles help foretell the fate of coral in more acidic seasThumbnail image: CO2 bubbles emerging from volcanic seeps in Papua New Guinea.

The Land is Our Mother is based on a collection of field recordings of digeridoos made for the Australian Institute of Aboriginal Studies from the archive of the Pitts River Museum. Information about the recordings is limited but they were originally recorded on reel to reel tape.The recordings are rich and varied, some including song, but I eventually had to choose some of my favourites to build the piece. I was particularly interested in using the rhythms as these are such a key aspect in the power of digeridoo playing.The piece is called the Land is Our Mother in reference to the feelings of Indigenous People towards the land, its evolution and their rights to live in the land. Indigenous People have lived in Australia for at least 60,000 years and have a deep respect and spiritual connection to the land which is often expressed through digeridoo playing.“The land is our mother. Like a human mother, the land gives us protection, enjoyment and provides out needs economic, social and religious.” (Djinyini Gondarra, Aboriginal Elder)Didgeridoo music reimagined by Laura Hills.———Part of the project A Century of Sounds, reimagining 100 sounds covering 100 years from the collections of the Pitt Rivers Museum at the University of Oxford.

In this episode, we hear how Generative AI is making it into the consultation room - but not through NHS endorsed routes - surveys suggest that ⅔ of doctors are using AI, for backoffice tasks - but also increasingly for information and diagnosis.   David Navarro, a research fellow in generative AI at the Australian Institute of Health Innovation, Charlotte Blease, associate professor at the Participatory eHealth and Health Data Research Group at Uppsala University, and Marcus Lewis, GP in London, reflect on what we know about the real way in gen AI is being used - and what “triadic care” (doctor, patient and AI) will mean for the future of the therapeutic relationship.   We also hear from Teppo Järvinen, professor of orthopaedic surgery at Helsinki University, about surgical subacromial decompression - a 10 year follow up of a double blinded placebo controlled trial, confirms that surgery is no more effective than standard care. Yet surgical interventions continue - we hear why.   Finally, we go to a Cholera clinic in Nigeria, where Médecins Sans Frontières are running cholera treatment centres, which you can help by donating to our Christmas appeal.   Links Generative AI and the clinical encounter   The BMJ appeal 2025-26: Inside MSF's response to cholera in Nigeria: a day in the life of an emergency doctor   Arthroscopic subacromial decompression versus placebo surgery for subacromial pain syndrome

Australia has recorded the highest number of Indigenous deaths in custody in four decades. Data from the Australian Institute of Criminology finds 33 of the 113 people who died in police or prison custody in the last financial year were First Nations.

A stadium's worth of men—every year. That's the scale of new IPV use suggested by Ten To Men, Australia's landmark longitudinal study of male health. We sit down with research fellow Karlee O'Donnell a Researcher with the Australian Institute of Family Studies to unpack what the data really says about how depression, suicidality, paternal warmth, and social support shape men's risk—and what actually works to prevent harm.Across a decade of surveys, one in three men self-reported using some form of intimate partner violence. Yet within those hard numbers are practical levers. Men who strongly felt they received warm, respectful affection from a father or father figure were nearly half as likely to perpetrate IPV later. That's not about father presence; it's about the quality of care boys see and absorb. We translate that insight into real-world steps: father-inclusive perinatal care, concrete coaching on warmth and de-escalation, and programs that treat caregiving as core to men's health.We also dig into mental health pathways without reducing IPV to mental illness. Men with moderate or severe depressive symptoms were significantly more likely to use IPV later, and men with suicidal thoughts, plans, or attempts carried elevated risk independent of depression. We explore how anger, externalizing behaviors, and coercive control intersect with distress, and why services must protect partners while caring for the suicidal person. Clinicians get a roadmap: use screenings as early-warning signals, educate on escalation, build coping skills, and connect men to support before behavior hardens into harm.Finally, we highlight the quiet power of social support, which lowered the odds of IPV onset, and we make the case for policy that rebuilds men's community ties and includes fathers from day one. Healthier men mean safer families and stronger communities.

In this episode of The Deep, Erika discusses the rise and fall of climate alarmism. She dives into the history of the "global warming" apocalypse narrative, and turns to John Paul II to gain a proper human-centered approach to environmentalism.
