Until next year, @mozztacular, @Asad_Prodhan, @RoyalFizzbin, @mozammel47, @wytamma, Bec, and @RhysHParry out! #MicroSeq2025

And that’s a wrap of #MicroSeq2025! A huge thanks to all our brilliant presenters, fantastic chairs, and wonderfully engaged audience. We hope you all enjoyed the conference as much as we did, and can’t wait to see you next year at #MicroSeq2026!

@PenpenG123 @GazollaVolpiano @AUSSOCMIC @AusVirologySoc @bananabenana @mmaqboolahme This year, our best question awards go to Himal Shrestha, Jackie Mahar, @bananabenana x2, Rose Collis, @BioElogy, Md Mizanaur Rahaman, and @mmaqboolahme! #MicroSeq2025

@PenpenG123 @GazollaVolpiano @AUSSOCMIC @AusVirologySoc @bananabenana @mmaqboolahme Last but certainly not least, we have #MicroSeq2025 merch prizes for the best question of each session. MicroSeq is made special and successful by engagement from our brilliant audience. Thank you for keeping the discussions going!

🏆It’s Prize Time!🏆 #MicroSeq2025 has lots of prizes on offer, generously sponsored by @AUSSOCMIC, @AusVirologySoc, and Microbial Genomics #MGen. Not to mention, some real cool merch on offer for our best questions from each session! 🥳

What a fantastic way to wrap up our #MicroSeq2025 talks! Leah gives our junior researchers some valuable career advice, like go new places, find mentors, reflect and introspect, and be strategic about taking opportunities!

Hospital settings generate SO much sequence data, which needs to be efficiently explored and analysed for routine #surveillance. Watch this space - Leah’s got a fantastic framework coming to establish a #plasmid reference network - a plasmid #pangenome. #MicroSeq2025

Our final plenary for #MicroSeq2025 is Dr Leah Roberts from The University of Queensland Centre for Clinical Research. We’re going to hear how she utilises sequencing technologies to investigate plasmid-mediated antimicrobial resistance in healthcare settings 🩺

Session 2.4 is about to start - our FINAL session for #MicroSeq2025 😭 This session is chaired by Michael Hall and we’re being treated to a plenary talk by Dr Leah Roberts. After that - prizes! 🏅

🦠@bananabenana closes out our ECR talks for #MicroSeq2025 with the first comprehensive atlas of IMP #carbapenemases! Discover novel insights into their structure, mutations, transmission, & widespread endemicity - an under-recognised but important #publichealth threat! #bacteria

🥬@PenpenG123 demonstrates water-derived microbiomes (eg. irrigation) can alter raw plant food #microbiomes all the way from farm to digestion! Check out the way fresh produce acts as an effective link in the environment-to-gut continuum. #MicroSeq2025 #agriculture #foodsafety

🐖Manavi Muralidhar evaluates #metagenomics as an early pathogen detection method in piggery wastewater samples. Explore the ways metagenomics can monitor disease outbreaks and how to improve sensitivity for successful implementation! #MicroSeq2025 #OneHealth #wastewater

🧬Next up, @MwilaKabw3 uses #WGS in combination with traditional #virology methods to characterise a novel Fusobacterium nucleatum #bacteriophage. Exciting new insights into virus-host relationships, evolutionary history, ecology, and function! #MicroSeq2025 #genomics
