Antimicrobial resistance affects all of us. From routine surgery to cancer care, food systems and community health—AMR is reshaping how we live and heal. Join the launch of LIMS’ REACH Initiative and be part of the solution: eventbrite.com.au/e/reach-initia…

ACREME was proud to see students, Kaitlin Pekin, Pailene Lim and Janani Karunarathne contribute to the 16th Victorian Infection and Immunity Network (@The_VIIN) Lorne Infection and Immunity Conference in February 👏 @BurnetInstitute @WEHI_research

Last Friday, Isabella had the opportunity to showcase her Honours project on how influenza A virus drives TLR7-dependent responses in non-small cell lung cancer at the #YoungVIIN2025 symposium. It was a great moment for Isabella and our lab! @The_VIIN #viinyis #IAV #flu #cancer

Had a great time presenting for the some research for the first time in a few years at the @The_VIIN Young Investigator Symposium!

That concludes an incredible day of science! A huge shoutout to the presenters, our amazing keynote speakers Marcel Doerflinger and Nancy Wang, and the award winners! Thanks for making this symposium a success. We look forward to seeing you next year! #YoungVIIN2025 #VIINYIS

Final talk of the day! ✨️ Le Wang from @WEHI_research wrapped up our last oral presentation session with an engaging talk on how Pro-apoptotic Agents Reduce Chronic HIV Infection in vivo #YoungVIIN2025 #VIINYIS

Great energy from Wei-Che Chan as they showcase a 'microfluidic chip' that enables monitoring Ca2+ dynamic of individual cells! A novel tool used to discover: Heterogeneous Mechanisms of Response to Anti-PD-1 Therapy" 🔬 @RMIT #YoungVIIN2025 #VIINYIS

Fantastic end to science bites @The_VIIN, brilliant presentation by Laura Rikard-Bell "Macrophage heterogeneity influences cellular response to HIV infection and latency modulation" from @BurnetInstitute #YoungVIIN2025 #VIINYIS

An interesting talk by Xiaoyue Zhang entitled- Macrophages play critical roles in MR1 antigen presentation and regulation of MAIT cell immunity against bacteria 👏@TheDohertyInst #YoungVIIN2025

Holly Fryer from @MonashUni giving us the low down on how memory B cells and plasmablasts expand following experimental infection with Streptococcus pyogenes in humans. #YoungVIIN2025 #VIINYIS

Diving into more unconventional T cell research today! 🔬 Xiaoyue Zhang at @TheDohertyInst is presenting her amazing work: "Macrophages play critical roles in MR1 antigen presentation and regulation of MAIT cell immunity against bacteria". #YoungVIIN2025 #VIINYIS

And last of the science bites is Laura Rikard-Bell from @BurnetInstitute telling us all about macrophage heterogeneity influences cellular response to HIV infection and latency modulation! #YoungVIIN2025 #VIINYIS

Vic Lin is on stage now presenting "Altered gastrointestinal permeability and immune profiles in the Shank3B-/- mouse model of autism and modulation by the microbial metabolite-sequestering drug". 🧬 ring! #YoungVIIN2025 #VIINYIS

Theresa Nguyen from the Department of Immunology at @MonashUni giving us a snapshot of a multi-omic approach to studying chronic urinary Tract infections #YoungVIIN2025 #VIINYIS

Fantastic talk "A high-dimensional flow cytometry profiling on peripheral blood mononuclear cells of transitioning transgender individuals" by Den Celesta from @MCRI_for_kids @UniMelb @The_VIIN #YoungVIIN2025 #VIINYIS

Another great science bite from You Min Ahn @latrobe on "First molecular insight into HLA-C contribution to COVID-19 outcome" 🧬🦠 #YoungVIIN2025 #VIINYIS

Our next science bite from Carissa Aurelia Carissa Aurelia from @TheDohertyInst presenting on the bispecific role of IgG4 antibodies to SARS-CoV-2 #YoungVIIN2025 #VIINYIS

Great to hear about "Investigation of microbe associated antibody cross-reactivity in SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid immune response" from @FialhoJoshuah @The_VIIN @RMIT #YoungVIIN2025 #VIINYIS
