Just got this in my Lab’s holiday party 😅🙏😆

It costs $89-$199 for a poster printing Estimated $260.000-$597.000 for ~3k posters (main conference) $0.5M dollars go to the trash bin right after 3 hours 😭 I feel sad, is there any more sustainable way to reduce this waste?? 🥹 #NeurIPS2024 #NeurIPS

Congratulations to GAMA Healthcare Australia, winners of the Best Large Stand Award. Well done to the team for making the experience so fun and interactive for our delegates. See you next year! #GAMAHealthcareAU #ACIPC2024 #meetingsinmelbourne #visitmelbourne #visitvictoria

A thought-provoking presentation at #ACIPC2024 from Prof Brett Mitchell AM & Nirmali Sivapragasam. Their CLEEN study assessed the impact of enhanced cleaning & disinfection of shared equipment on HAI in hospitalised patients. #meetingsinmelbourne #visitmelbourne #visitvictoria

Doctors dont fear death. We fear this👇 Welcome to the age of MRGN

Love those post-docs. It's National Post-doc Appreciation Week! #NPAW2024

My first appearance on the podcast! Hear about our latest RCT and how we reduced HAIs by 35% 🦠📉

New paper alert! If you've read the CLEEN study paper last week, you may find yourself wondering how long it actually takes to clean different pieces of medical equipment. Well - we've answered that here 🦠⏳📜

Here's the link to the paper 🦠🏥📜authors.elsevier.com/c/1jbJ85E-UogX…

A very exciting announcement - the results from our latest clinical trial are now published online in the Lancet Infectious Diseases! I'm incredibly proud of our team, led by Prof Brett Mitchell, and all the hard work that led to the success of this project.

@OscarHLW What a comeback story!

I now have the educational phscyologist reports from when I was like 12 and they are just so funny. It must have been like testing a goldfish.
