I had SO MUCH FUN at #ASTMH2024 this past week. It was a particularly good year for the science, full of exciting vector and malaria biology. I have come away feeling inspired.
Most of all, I loved catching up with friends and colleagues from all over the world.
Had a great time discussing my work with amazing scientists at #ASTMH2024!

Truly inspiring Keynote Address at #ASTMH2024 by @dndi.bsky.social Africa Ambassador and my mentor Dr. MoniqueWasunna
What is the point of making scientific discoveries if the people it will benefit do not have access to them?
Decolonizing science is essential for the benefit of all #TropMed24
John Amuasi is presenting on the challenges of #onehealth research and public health in a rapidly changing world. #TropMed2024 #astmh2024
Poster session complete! Now time for drinks 🍻 @jakewangelico.bsky.social @mosquito-brit.bsky.social #ASTMH2024
Excited to be in New Orleans with some great people to see some amazing research! #ASTMH2024

More interesting presentations at #astmh2024 - Jessica Floyd on projecting global demand for malaria commodities
Great way to kick off #ASTMH2024!
Interesting talks this morning at #astmh2024 - Katherine Battle presents on integrating multiple surveillance data streams to support malaria programs
Multiple colleagues have told me that my brain will be reduced to a puddle of mush by the end of #ASTMH2024, and I’m honestly stoked. Apart from my lifelong fascination with infectious diseases, work in this space is more likely to, by nature of who’s affected, be pro-access.

On my way to #astmh2024! Hope to find some of the #episky crowd at the meeting. Looking forward to making new connections and seeing good friends and colleagues.
I am headed to New Orleans for my first #ASTMH2024 meeting.
I am under the impression it is a small, quiet meeting and super easy to navigate.
Hope to catch up with old friends and meet new ones.
I somehow managed to forget my poster for #ASTMH2024 despite putting it right in front of my apartment door (because I thought I might forget it). In times like these, I am grateful for FedEx print centers that are literally next door to the convention center. And beignets. Well, always beignets.
