Oh my microbiome! Pilots well underway for our DFAT funded OneHealth #AMR project in Hanoi - #SAPPHIRE @who.int critical and high priority #BPPL pathogens abound in wet markets, even carbapenem screening plates are loaded. Watch this space! @syd-viet-institute.bsky.social

Hello scientists of Bluesky - I'm keen to speak with Australian researchers affected by the Trump administration's impact on science. If you've received a questionnaire from a US agency, or your work has been affected by cuts or funding freezes to US science orgs, I'd love to hear from you.

Catering for the ANZMIG educational #mycology meeting tonight is on point 😃 Looking forward to some interesting cases. Bound to be some Lomentospora…

Wrapping up 🇻🇳 trip, planning for our DFAT funded SAPPHIRE #OneHealth #AMR project. 🐖 🐟 🥬 🧫. Visited 4 provinces for great chats with new contacts in universities and local govt. Excited to get underway! www.sydney.edu.au/news-opinion...

In Singapore for FAST-IC investigator meeting. First walk around the beautiful botanic gardens in years 😍! Then down to work.. Excited to get started & contribute to assessment of Fosmanogepix for candidaemia at Westmead. #FPPL #AMR #mycology

With almost 20 #mycology talks, covering everything from #AMR to #WildlifeConservation, there is something for everyone in Sydney ID's Fungisphere webinar series. Check them out & sign up below 👇👇👇 and please repost or pass on to your fungi friends www.youtube.com/playlist?lis...

Fungi Fight Back - a great talk from Lars Westblade on his experience with fungal #AMR. Come for the fungal talks, stay for the bagel jokes. @wcmcpathology.bsky.social #Mycology #FungiSphere #Sydney_ID youtu.be/OKfF7zBrWPE?...

Right! Emerging from wonderful 3 week break and thinking about return to work. Who’s got tips for making that both painless and productive?! #academic #medical

Well this looks a lot more promising ☀️ (1st time I’ve seen blue skies in Amsterdam for a while, too!) Start of the final leg home to Sydney ✈️

Such a benign scene to have resulted in 4hr delay in Prague! Now we fly into the storms of Amsterdam 😬😬🫨 on the long return to home and work

Bubonic plague, part of the ‘great tapestry of Scotland’. The fleas are done so well! Holiday viewing 🎄🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Not long between sunrise and sunset, with walks along the Tweed.

Visiting a tiny mycologist in the woods of Monteviot gardens, Roxburghshire.

The food of my people 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿. Bit of a change from my usual noodle pics - great fuel for wintry walks tho 😍

That’s a pretty festive bromeliad on campus at USyd ☀️ 🎅 🌱 🌹 🌱 🎅 ☀️

Beautiful day for Sydney ID Christmas Party! 🎅 Great to catch up w colleagues before the break and make plans for 2025. USyd campus looking stunning, too 😍

🚀 Just published, our review of direct antifungal drug delivery approaches for invasive fungal infections. Evidence is still limited, but trials are underway. Extra options, fewer side effects, better patient outcomes 🚀 #AntifungalResearch #HealthcareInnovation pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39317940/

Nice paper - tricky case. Patient w COVID-19 isolated for 7 months, impacting rehab. Rules and interpretation of tests were too rigid for lung Tx patient, long after IPC threat had passed. Authors @priyagargiddoc.bsky.social @alyssapradhan.bsky.social et al offer some solutions!

In Nov we held the first Sydney ID Fungal Genomics Workshop🥂. Jo Rhodes did an awesome job leading, with help from Sharon Chen, Pooja Sethiya, Caitlin Keighley and more. Lots of hands on 💻 🍄‍🟫 🧬 🚨Online version coming soon 🚨 @drjorhodes.bsky.social

Recently had great time, invited to talk fungi at National Infectious Diseases meeting plenary in Vietnam #Mycology got a good profile! Great to see other @sydneyuni.bsky.social people - Profs Dwyer and Thu Anh Nguyen - give talks too! 😀

Here is some of our current research to tackle #AMR, in Vietnam and Australia, supported by DFAT, NHMRC, and others 👊🇻🇳 researching #OneHealth interventions for bacterial and fungal AMR 👊🇻🇳 scaling-up Hospital #AMS strategies 👊🇦🇺 RCTs on new antifungals

🚨Impactful #OneHealth #AMR research projects in Vietnam, funded by DFAT 🚨 Are you a Vietnam-based post-doc with experience in lab, field-work, or qualitative aspects work? ✅Come work with me and the team Sydney Vietnam Institute. We'd love to hear from you😀 t.co/xhiFPOstLR
