Eloise is a PhD candidate at The University of Queensland investigating the persistence and conservation of four endangered reptiles in the Southern Brigalow Belt, Queensland - including the Condamine and Roma earless dragon, grey snake, and five-clawed worm-skink. Her research focuses on habitat requirements, detection methods, and the impacts of feral predators, using a combination of remote sensing, field surveys, and ecological modelling. She is passionate about translating ecological research into practical conservation outcomes for threatened species in working landscapes.
