So excited for Prof Brian Abbey & Dr Eugeniu Balaur (LIMS) with Prof Belinda Parker (@PeterMacCC), who are finalists in the 2024 @uniaus Shaping Australia Awards for AlleSense & NanoMSlide! Read more and show your support in the People's Choice voting 👉 shapingaustraliaawards.com.au/finalists/la-t…
Amazing turn out from @latrobe at last week's #BMH2024!! Special thanks to @LIMSLTU for supporting @abbey_milligan and @Dr_Ash_Rozario from my lab! And brilliant to see fourteen biomedical @LaTrobeRHS researchers attending from our regional campuses @latrobebendigo @LaTrobeAW!!
Thanks to our @latrobe colleagues for participating, presenting and helping with the organisation of @bmh2024Melb conference Thanks to @LIMSLTU for supporting the registrations for 22 of our students and ECRs for #BMH2024 Brilliant success with excellent talks and many awards
What a great @latrobe @LIMSLTU turnout at #BMH2024!

Pretty sure I’ve worked out what will be everyone’s favorite presentation for #BMH2024!!! 😍😍😍 Prince Ali the purebred Alpine #Dingo is in the building!! @ausbiophyssoc

Great News!! We have extended the deadline for our image competition. You now have until Friday 25th October to submit your amazing images. #FluorescenceFriday
Now is your chance to find your favourite microscopy image and enter! 🔬There is nothing to lose and we’re very excited to see all the fantastic and unique images that you’ve all managed to find 🌟 Check out the post below for more information ⬇️ Entries close Friday 11th Oct.
Just over a week to go until the deadline for our Annual Imaging Competition. Open to all Australian microscopists, with six categories and over $3600 worth of prizes, yo'd be a fool not to enter. Go to microscopy.org.au to enter.
Awesome job by @abbey_milligan from the Whelan lab (@DrDonnaWhelan) presenting her beautiful work on lipid droplets and stat proteins!! Amazing work Abbey ✨🫶🤩 #BMH2024 @bmh2024Melb @LaTrobeRHS
More amazing #microscopy at #BMH2024 from @_drkatemc_!! Always love seeing some mitochondria movies on the big screen!

Another visually stunning talk at #BMH2024 with @Toby_DM_Bell updating us on his interdisciplinary collaboration with @sjturn using single molecule #SuperResolution microscopy to look at histone modifications in T cells!

Congrats @Super_ResSos on a super presentation!! #BMH2024
Another great talk from one of our student members!!! Nathan Sos from @Toby_DM_Bell’s lab presenting his gorgeous #microscopy work investigating nucleoli-virus interactions!
Always love hearing @ebony_monson’s latest work on lipid droplets! Fantastic new insights into how they interact with extracellular vesicles and fight viruses! 🔬 🦠 🧫 #BMH2024 @SABE_latrobe @LIMSLTU

Some more great science at #BMH2024 from @Sarzy_Stewart @SABE_latrobe @LIMSLTU telling us about phospholipid scrambling in extracellular vesicles!! Very cool!!

Great work by our @LaTrobeRHS Honours student, Rhys Soto! He’s in the first picture presenting his research to high schoolers visiting #BMH2024!!
Outreach program with local secondary school science students showcasing the amazing array of careers in science. @bmh2024Melb #bmh2024 #AuPS2024
My absolute pleasure to co-chair the #StructuralBiology and #Biophysics steams on advanced microscopy alongside @_drkatemc_ at #BMH2024!! Five great talks showcasing just how much we can understand with cutting edge fluorescence and electron microscopies!!!

I don’t know what career development training I missed but grabbing a tonne of wine from dans and then carrying it through the Melbourne streets was not something I received training for… time for dinner @ausbiophyssoc members!!!

Fantastic opportunity at #BMH2024 for @Dr_Ash_Rozario from @LaTrobeRHS to present his latest work on next generation fluorescence imaging of T cell differentiation.

Day 3 at #BMH2024!! The gang’s all here and looking forward to learning about RNA technology. Norbert Pardi presenting the plenary!


Well done to @LaTrobeRHS PhD student Cass Cianciarulo on her presentation at #BMH2024 in the proteomics session! Really cool work on how inflammation occurs at the molecular level being done @latrobe in #Bendigo and now shared with the international science community!

Amazing job by our @LaTrobeRHS Honours student Rhys Soto, presenting his research in sixty seconds to a standing room only crowd at #BMH2024 !! Check out his poster on #ExpansionMicroscopy #492 on Wednesday!

No dedicated #biophysics symposium this morning but plenty of #biophysics sneaking into the other sessions. Past ASB secretary and last year’s McAuley-Hope winner @MeganLOMara currently presenting her work on membrane phase separation and antimicrobial resistance! #BMH2024
