Thanks again to @mahjabeenkhan58 for snapping these great photos. Antimicrobial Resistance is such an important and truly interesting research topic.
Thank you so much @mahjabeenkhan58. It was good to see #AMR feature so strongly at #2022ASM #AUSSOCMIC. Nice also to see some photos of my talk as I forgot to take some. 🤗.

We love to see it!.
A picture to warm a supervisor's heart. It is so nice when post-grad students befriend each other, support one another, and work together towards a common goal. @Yang99887766, @ann_hahahah, and @sida0323 from @LabVenter are hard at work to combat #AMR. 🥰
