I guess I can't say I presented my poster on #Microbio25 without posting a photo of myself with the poster. You can still come and hear about my research on Streptomyces at poster B057 today! @microbiologysociety.org

What a brilliant talk by @phoebecrossley.bsky.social today at #Microbio2025 about gynaecological conditions and the vaginal microbiome. Coming out of endometriosis awareness month is so refreshing hearing about current research in the field!
