Fiddler Crab research

The Fiddler Crab researchers from the Backwell lab at the ANU Research Scool of Biology base their field studies from the University’s North Australia Research Unit in Darwin for four months of the year (September - Christmas).

Researchers work and help each other designing experiments and in the field, and there’s time for leisure activities too.

Each season sees a different set of researchers, and some make friends for life with the people they study with in Darwin.
