Hi everyone, just a quick reminder about @aimi-uts.bsky.social hosting Prof Leo Eberl next week for an @asm-nswact.bsky.social event!

AIMI is excited to host Professor Leo Eberl from the University of Zurich, in collaboration with @asm-nswact.bsky.social Please join us on April 24th to hear about Leo’s work on Burkholderia quorum sensing, biofilms, and more!

Hi everyone! This is official, with the participation of @asm-nswact.bsky.social , @aimi-uts.bsky.social will host Prof Leo Eberl from the Univ of Zurich to talk about the most fascinating bacteria: #Burkholderia Please register for this exciting event!!!!!

Excited to share this article with the community! Many thanks to @dezieleric.bsky.social for allowing me to start this work during my PhD and for his continued support. I also appreciate @mariecg.bsky.social for her amazing contribution and constant support!

Grateful to @tstinear.bsky.social and @abdou-hachani.bsky.social for letting me to continue this work during my time @thedohertyinst.bsky.social Many thanks to @garry-myers.bsky.social for letting me carry this project forward and start my new chapter of #Burkholderia CMV at @aimi-uts.bsky.social
