Researcher biography
Brooke Allison is a postgraduate student in the Masters of Conservation Science program at the University of Queensland. She also received her Bachelor of Science from UQ with an extended major in Ecology & Conservation.
She has a passion for research, completing an undergraduate project in the functional ecology of seeds and seedlings from winter annuals in Western Australia. She particularly enjoys her volunteer work not just in helping out in lab and field work to fellow members of the School of Environment, but in her work at the Wildlife Hospital for the RSPCA at Wacol. She has also helped staff in science camps with the Young Scientists of Australia, helping inspire young minds.
She’s not picky as long as it’s green, enjoying exploring all kinds of natural landscapes from a dry sclerophyll eucalypt forest to the wet tropics of the Daintree. She’s always looking for her next adventure so if she’s not in her office, look around outside.
