A huge thank you to everyone that came to visit us at the Eisteddfod this year. It was great to showcase our work and to have an opprortunity to talk to you all - even better to see so many viruses (the card, pom-pom and playdoh variety) circulating the maes!

🎪 Ymlaen i'r Eisteddfod yn Wrecsam yr wythnos nesaf! Yn edrych ymlaen yn arw i ddod â'n stondin adeiladu feirysau yn ôl i'r maes ac i siarad am ein gwaith yn WAVU. Dewch i'n gweld ni ym mhabell prifysgol Caerdydd ar y Dydd Mercher!

🧪Wedi disgwl yn eiddgar am y cyfarfod Adenofeirws Rhyngwladol eleni ac yn falch o ddweud na wnaeth o siomi! 4 diwrnod yn llawn sgyrsiau gwych, posteri a chymuned wych o ymchwilwyr. Braf oedd gallu perfformio ar y delyn hefyd o fewn yr wythnos 🪉🎶

Mae mis Gorffennaf wedi hedfan!

🗣 Braint oedd gallu mynychu colocwiwm Cymdeithas Ddysgedig Cymru - fforwm gwych i gysylltu ag ymchwilwyr gyrfa cynnar o ystod eang o ddisgyblaethau ledled Cymru. Mwynhais y cyfle i allu cyflwyno fy ngwaith yn y Gymraeg yn arw

🎪 Next up is the Eisteddfod in Wrexham! Can't wait to bring our build-a virus-stand back to the maes next week and to talk about our work at Wales Applied Virology Unit (WAVU). Please pop by and see us in the Cardiff University tent on Wednesday!

Can safely say it's also the first time that I've ever brought my harp along to a scientific conference 😅🪉🎶

🧪The long-awaited International Adenovirus meeting was a fantastic event - a huge thanks to BSGCT for supporting my attendance. 4 days full of brilliant talks, posters and a great community of researchers.

That's great to hear! We've made a few resources in the lab for Welsh speakers 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 - here's one that was illustrated by a talented lab member from a few years ago featuring oncolytic viruses 😊

Hi Monica,
Could I possibly be added to the feed please? I'm a postdoc at Cardiff University interested in developing virotherapies for cancer and developing 3D organoid models. I've provided a link to a paper of mine below. Thanks 😊
