#LISSSD2025

What better way to end #LISSSD2025 than by having a dinner with the wonderful Yujiro Hirose 😊 The Strep A commmunity does great work together, but let's not forget that it also produces friendships! #Cheers

Great discussions happening at the #iSpyNetworkMeeting #LISSSD2025! Collaborating around #Strep research. Huge thanks to the Leducq Foundation for making it all possible! @ispyexplore.bsky.social @ispylifenetwork.bsky.social @grampospath.bsky.social @thushan-desilva.bsky.social

Great to see everyone dialled in for Joe Kado's talk on "Diagnosing in Low Resource Settings" at #LISSSD2025 in Brisbane! So many #Strep enthusiasts in one place. Big thanks to @ispyexplore.bsky.social & @ispylifenetwork.bsky.social for putting this on! #Lancefield #iSpyNetworkMeeting

Congratulations to Tom Parks the new President of the Lancefield Society and Committee members ! #LISSSD2025 @ispylifenetwork.bsky.social

Brekkie in Brisbane #LISSSD2025 with some great scientists who spent time—either as trainees or sabbatical professors—in our lab at UC San Diego over the years:

Nina van Sorge 🇳🇱
Martina Sanderson-Smith 🇦🇺
Johan Malmström 🇸🇪
Yujiro Hirose 🇯🇵
Nitasha Menon 🇺🇸
Kelly Doran 🇺🇸 (+ Alex Horswill)

Absolutely mind-blown that my undergraduate Microbiology professor, Barbara Spellerberg from Ulm University, watched my talk at #LISSSD2025 today and then came to say hi. The last time I saw her was about 14 years ago and she remembered me!!! 🤯

Evening kick off off at #Lancefield #LISSSD2025 in Brisbane for all #Strep enthusiasts @ispylifenetwork.bsky.social @ispyexplore.bsky.social

Really nice project characterising emm type differences in remote/first nations peoples and typical urban centres!

I wonder whether this could be extrapolated to other settings like Far North Queensland.

Also looking forward to the #LISSSD2025 meeting in a couple of months in Brisbane.
