What next from Vienna #ESCMIDGlobal?

Oh my microbiome!

Pilots well underway for our DFAT funded OneHealth #AMR project in Hanoi - #SAPPHIRE

@who.int critical and high priority #BPPL pathogens abound in wet markets, even carbapenem screening plates are loaded.

Watch this space!

Hello scientists of Bluesky - I'm keen to speak with Australian researchers affected by the Trump administration's impact on science.

If you've received a questionnaire from a US agency, or your work has been affected by cuts or funding freezes to US science orgs, I'd love to hear from you.

Looking forward to having you back in Sydney !

Catering for the ANZMIG educational #mycology meeting tonight is on point 😃

Looking forward to some interesting cases. Bound to be some Lomentospora…

Wrapping up 🇻🇳 trip, planning for our DFAT funded SAPPHIRE #OneHealth #AMR project. 🐖 🐟 🥬 🧫.

Visited 4 provinces for great chats with new contacts in universities and local govt.

Excited to get underway!

In Singapore for FAST-IC investigator meeting.

First walk around the beautiful botanic gardens in years 😍! Then down to work..

Excited to get started & contribute to assessment of Fosmanogepix for candidaemia at Westmead.

YouTube video by Sydney Infectious Diseases Institute The Fungisphere - Fungi fight back: emerging fungal pathogens and antifungal resistance

Fungi Fight Back - a great talk from Lars Westblade on his experience with fungal #AMR.

Come for the fungal talks, stay for the bagel jokes.

Right!

Emerging from wonderful 3 week break and thinking about return to work.

Who’s got tips for making that both painless and productive?!

#academic #medical

Well this looks a lot more promising ☀️ (1st time I’ve seen blue skies in Amsterdam for a while, too!)

Start of the final leg home to Sydney ✈️

They should have done! Has the right vibe 😂

Such a benign scene to have resulted in 4hr delay in Prague!

Now we fly into the storms of Amsterdam 😬😬🫨 on the long return to home and work

Bubonic plague, part of the ‘great tapestry of Scotland’.

The fleas are done so well!

Holiday viewing 🎄🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Not long between sunrise and sunset, with walks along the Tweed.

Visiting a tiny mycologist in the woods of Monteviot gardens, Roxburghshire.

The food of my people 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿.

Bit of a change from my usual noodle pics - great fuel for wintry walks tho 😍

That’s a pretty festive bromeliad on campus at USyd

☀️ 🎅 🌱 🌹 🌱 🎅 ☀️

Beautiful day for Sydney ID Christmas Party! 🎅 Great to catch up w colleagues before the break and make plans for 2025.

USyd campus looking stunning, too 😍

🚀 Just published, our review of direct antifungal drug delivery approaches for invasive fungal infections.

Evidence is still limited, but trials are underway. Extra options, fewer side effects, better patient outcomes 🚀

Nice paper - tricky case. Patient w COVID-19 isolated for 7 months, impacting rehab.

Rules and interpretation of tests were too rigid for lung Tx patient, long after IPC threat had passed.

Authors @priyagargiddoc.bsky.social @alyssapradhan.bsky.social et al offer some solutions!

In Nov we held the first Sydney ID Fungal Genomics Workshop🥂.

Jo Rhodes did an awesome job leading, with help from Sharon Chen, Pooja Sethiya, Caitlin Keighley and more.

Lots of hands on 💻 🍄‍🟫 🧬

Recently had great time, invited to talk fungi at National Infectious Diseases meeting plenary in Vietnam

#Mycology got a good profile!

Great to see other @sydneyuni.bsky.social people - Profs Dwyer and Thu Anh Nguyen - give talks too! 😀

👊🇦🇺 in-vitro testing novel antifungals
👊🇻🇳 working with high-school citizen scientists to measure antifungal #AMR in the environment
👊🇻🇳/🇦🇺 getting @sydneyuni.bsky.social MD students involved in #AMR research in the region
👊 bringing mycology experts together to build skills and knowledge

Here is some of our current research to tackle #AMR, in Vietnam and Australia, supported by DFAT, NHMRC, and others

👊🇻🇳 researching #OneHealth interventions for bacterial and fungal AMR
👊🇻🇳 scaling-up Hospital #AMS strategies
👊🇦🇺 RCTs on new antifungals

🚨Impactful #OneHealth #AMR research projects in Vietnam, funded by DFAT 🚨

Are you a Vietnam-based post-doc with experience in lab, field-work, or qualitative aspects work?
