Good morning Brisbane! What a nice view to prepare my very first talk at #LISSSD25 !

Looking forward to meeting people at the conference.

It’s my great pleasure to present the Global Pneumoocccal Sequencing project at #LISSSD25

I feel humbled to learn more about Group A and Group B streptococci and other species, and meet great minds to discuss science.
