๐Ÿ”ฌ Huge thanks to @micro-au.bsky.social & Adelaide Microscopy for an incredible day at the #EMBLAPhD Course!

From volume EM & cryo-TEM, to AI-powered image analysis & spatial transcriptomics, students gained a valuable behind-the-scenes glimpse at cutting-edge imaging.

Todayโ€™s focus was all about #scicomm - and our PhD Course participants couldnโ€™t have been in better hands with our trainers, Jodie Haigh & Dr Jonathan Berengut.

Students put all the tips into practice with 3MTs & a poster session. A day of skills that will last a career!
