What a wonderful week meeting and sharing the step by steps of gene editing Leishmania with Jeziel D. Damasceno and Eva Gluenz to a fantastic group of inspiring and enthusiastic parasitologists! A true privilege to be part of this! May the future reserve only good things for this bunch🤍

Really nice to have Dominique Soldati-Favre Soldati Lab talking to #mebop2023 students

Very happy to be part of wonderful event. Thank you MeBoP

Time for toxoplasma epigenomics at #mebop2023 with HAKIMI Mohamed-Ali

Saying hello to our sibling course MeBoP that is taking place in Bern at the moment. Let's hope to see each other sun. Have a great final week as well!

Time for some #giardia at #mebop2023 with Carmen Faso @LabFaso

Amazing #cryptosporidium work from Amandine Guérin Amandine Guerin at #mebop2023

Ron Dzikowski talking to #mebop2023 students about antigenic variation in Plasmodium

Thanks to Gerry Graham for a great talk to #mebop2023 students on career development, CV and grant writing.

Nice talk about Plasmodium hematopoietic niche from Matt Marti to #mebop2023 students.

What a privilege to have Volker Heussler HeusslerLab speaking to #mebop2023 about host response to #plasmodium liver stages. Last talk of this year’s MeBoP!

Alas, #mebop2023 has come to an end. What an amazing two weeks filled with science, fun and new friends. Thank you to the amazing volunteers who make this possible.

🙏 Huge thanks to the organizers/volunteers making #parasitology accessible for young people across the Middle East & Africa and focusing on endemic parasites in low-income country (e.g., Plasmodium...). Truly, events like these make our job worthwhile.

Reflecting on 2 remarkable weeks immersed in great science and valuable networking! Grateful for the enlightening experience at #mebop2023 and the exposure to mol. biology and parasite genetics!🧬🔬Heartfelt thanks to the organizers n sponsors for this transformative opportunity!

opportunities and bonds formed were truly special. Thank you, #mebop2023, for opening my eyes to a world of endless possibilities in the realm of science. This journey has been unforgettable, and I eagerly anticipate the path that lies ahead.

The MeBoP is an ideal opportunity for early career researchers from the Middle Eastern, North and Sub-Saharan African countries to gain a professional experience for facing the ongoing challenges and better perception of parasitology research in and beyond their borders. 1

As a participant of #mebop2023, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to the organizing committee Omar Harb 🍉 Sheiner lab @DeitschKirk to keep our spirits up with an extremely efficacious package of learning, networking and fun without sparing any efforts. 2

I am looking for postbac or postdoctoral researchers! Anyone interested in applying whole genome sequencing, dual RNA-seq, scRNA-seq and/or spatial transcriptomics to study host/pathogen interactions during malaria infections?

🆕 | We are delighted to announce that UofG Sii's Lilach Sheiner (Sheiner lab), an expert in eukaryotic parasite cell biology who has been researching apicomplexan parasites since 2005, has been promoted to Professor! Congratulations, Professor Sheiner!
