Special guest speaker: Dr Jake Robinson
Dr Jake Robinson is a microbial and restoration ecologist and Senior Research Fellow at Flinders University, where he works in the Frontiers of Restoration Ecology lab. His interdisciplinary research explores the connections between biodiversity, ecosystem restoration and human health, with a particular focus on the often-unseen microbial communities that underpin healthy ecosystems. Jake has pioneered research into areas including soil ecoacoustics and aerobiology, using innovative approaches to better understand and restore ecological systems.
Jake is passionate about making complex ecological science accessible and relevant to the wider community. He is the author of Invisible Friends, TREEWILDING and The Nature of Pandemics, and regularly speaks to schools, community groups and public audiences about biodiversity, restoration and the relationship between nature and human wellbeing. In 2026, Jake was awarded the Green Adelaide Pelzer Prize for his contribution to environmental stewardship and public engagement with ecological science, and was appointed to the Green Adelaide Board.
