CONFERENCE SUCCESS FOR AROM STUDENTS

Congratulations to AROM PhD students Eden Mannix-Fisher, Samuel Dawson, Rachel Whelan and Stephen Thompson. Not only have they had their abstracts accepted for presentation at the Microbiology Society Annual Conference 2020 in April, but they have also all been awarded Microbiology Society Conference Grants towards travel. In addition, Samuel Dawson and Frazer McCuaig (MBiol placement student) have had their work accepted for presentation at the Society for Applied Microbiology’s Early Career Scientist Research Symposium in March. Acceptance of their abstracts for poster presentations comes with grants to cover registration and transport costs.

Well done all! It’s great to see your hard work being recognized by national learned societies.
