Researchers are encouraged to contact the Station Director as soon as practical, especially as permits may be required from Queensland Department of the Environment, especially for research that must be performed outside of the Station and on neighbouring properties. You will also need to be aware of what facilities and equipment are locally available for your project.

Non-reusable and specialist items will either have to be supplied by the researchers or bought from the (very limited) Station supply.

Researchers will be encouraged to assist with meal preparation and clean-up, and general Station maintenance/cleaning (especially laboratories) –the Station does not have paid staff.
