Getting ready for the immunology session at the Lorne Infection and Immunity meeting. Sometimes the air conditioning in the auditorium is quite strong so it pays to dress warmly VIIN #lorneiandi #safetyfirst

Well done Long Huynh on a schmick presentation of his work on artemisinin resistance in malaria parasites at the Lorne infection and immunity meeting. Beautiful imaging! VIIN #Lorneiandi

Impressive cell biology from Florence (Kai Qi Yek) at the Lorne infection and immunity conference explaining how Legionella hijack host cell mitochondria VIIN #Lorneiandi

Nice talk at Lorne I and I from Madeline Dans presenting some impressive and very collaborative med chem and parasite work from Sleebs Lab, ANU Toxo Lab, Dr Kelly Rogers OAM alan cowman, Adele Lehane ANU Division of Biomedical Science & Biochemistry and many others VIIN #LorneIandI

Folks, don't forget to submit your abstract for BioMalPar XXI by 25th of February.

Is this true Wai-Hong Tham? betootaadvocate.com/humans-of-beto…

As usual, some lovely microscopy from Ben Liffner, showing unprecedented detail of how Plasmodium sporozoites get made and how they work. #Lorneiandi VIIN

Wonderful overview at #Lorneiandi of the current status and future threats of influenza from Patrick Reading WHO CC Influenza Melbourne UniMelb MDHS. Some scary scenarios, lucky to have such dedicated and clever people working on this VIIN

Last day to submit an abstract for BioMalPar 2025, don’t miss out

Terrific scheme - particularly note the support for longer study travel by, for example parasitologists and other biomedical scientists

Is it only parasitologists that are happy to sit through one talk on maggots, then another on worms in horseshit before an evening meal together? What other weirdos do this? Great to get together with the Melbourne Aust Soc for Para folks- thanks Lucas Huggins for organising.

Thanks to our UniMelb MDHS SBS Early-Mid Career Researchers Association SBS EMCRA and panellists for running an inspiring event for #InternationalWomensDay. Great messages on “Amplifying Brilliant Career Moves”. #IWD2025

Join us online tomorrow to hear two Aust Soc for Para talks on malaria for World Malaria Day. Frankie Lyons WEHI (Walter and Eliza Hall Institute) talking about Transmission-blocking nanobodies and Ashton Kelly Institute for Molecular Bioscience on Immune heterogeneity in NK cells during controlled infection parasite.org.au/blog/asp-onlin…

BioMalPar bound! Looking forward to meeting up with malaria folks soon in Heidelberg #EMBLMalaria embl.org/about/info/cou…

Somewhat waylaid, but still on my way to BioMalPar by whatever mode of transport I can find #EMBLMalaria

Very fortunate to have Abdoulaye Djimdé Abdoulaye DJIMDE kicking off the BioMalPar XXI meeting EMBL Events #EMBLMalaria

Go Long Long Huynh. Fancy cell biology and fancy microscopy on artemisinin resistance in Plasmodium parasites at the BioMalPar conference #depremoldu EMBLMalaria EMBL Events

Congratulations Sophie Collier on a fantastic presentation on organelle inheritance in malaria parasites at BioMalPar #EMBLMalaria EMBL Events

Malaria colleagues, please do join in this online game of “Where’s Wally?” at BioMalPar, as well as the advanced version for we ageing members: “Where’s Wally’s growing bald patch?” #EMBLMalaria

Hey ChrisHunter we had a terrific Immunology session at BioMalPar this week in Heidelberg. Geoff McFadden even asked a immunologyish question. But am I correct in understanding from the session that you folks are still not all *100%* agreed about how we aquire immunity?
