Uni life: Olivia Sharp |
I took this photo studying late on Magill campus. The sunset looks incredible through the trees! |

Something that represents what you're studying: Deepa Nakmode |
In this photo, drug crystals sparkle like stars. For those with Parkinson’s, these tiny crystals symbolise hope—hope for fewer daily medications and a life with less disruption. Our research is turning these stars into a reality, aiming to make life a little easier for patients everywhere. |

Something you can't live without: Tamzin Reynolds-Seaman |
The lone chimney reaches up towards the Milky Way, showing a fascinating comparison between our industrial past and the endless galaxy. For something I can't live without it's definitely the outdoors. I photographed this at Hughes Enginehouse in Moonta. |
