Just got back from an amazing 'antibody & complement' conference in Girona, Spain. Wow, great science and wonderful scientists. Thanks Max Delbrück Center for the opportunity to present and @antibodysociety for funding! I will be back!!!

I also had the privilege to go to the ‘BioMalPar XV’ conference in Heidelberg, Germany in May! Thanks EMBL for the great opportunity to present and for my travel grant! Can’t wait to be back! #EliminateMalaria
