Natascha Miljković works with the Morphology Section of the Department of Theoretical Biology at the University of Vienna, Austria.

Natascha was granted an Australian Museum Visiting Collection Fellowship to visit the museum and use specimens from the fish collection in her research.

During her visit to the Australian Museum she examined many specimens of mudskippers. These small fishes usually live in tropical mangroves and can often be seen skipping across exposed mud flats or climbing the roots and stems of mangrove plants.

Natascha visited the Australian Museum between 25 October and 14 November, 2007. Towards the end of her stay she presented a seminar entitled '"Fishy" things occur in Mangroves, the forgotten Forest between Land and Sea'.
