Congratulations @SimonTang_ for your fantastic questions at YSP, earning you best audience participation award, and your @WileyBiomedical IUBMB Biofactors best poster award at #BMH2024 👏
Great to be back in Australia to present my TB work at @bmh2024Melb! Had a great time presenting a talk, a poster, and seeing a very Aussie marching band 🦘 Thanks to @IUBMB for supporting my attendance to the Young Scientist Program and BMH! @jacquesfellay @EPFL_en @EPFL

When mini meets maxi... Thanks to @PacBio for giving me this Lego set at @Genetics2023! It was fun to build it and compare it to the real Revio system at the @GarvanInstitute, where it now happily lives. @jil_hammond @GenTechGp
