Bridget Murphy’s involvement with the Australian Museum Fish Department began in 2005 when she worked on larval damselfishes under the Sydney University talented students program.

After the project was completed, she was employed for three months from November 2005 until February 2006. During this time she performed a range of collection management duties such as fixing and registering specimens, processing specimen loans and working in the Spirit House with the collection.

Bridget will shortly begin work on a PhD.
