About

Collection & Connection reveals how scientific specimens act as vessels of memory as they capture moments of life, behaviour and hidden relationships in nature. These traces of biodiversity help shape the research and conservation efforts we need for tomorrow.

Join Katie Vynhal and Sofwan Badr, postgraduates from Monash University Malaysia, as they share stories from the Malaysian forest and their encounters with some of its most weird and mysterious critters.
