An aerial photo of the remarkable group of scientists at the recent Gordon Research Conference on multi-drug efflux. It was really fun and exciting to learn more about this field and to see multiple talks related to the microbiome and host-bacterial interactions.
We're thrilled to welcome Than back to the lab, 2 years after his rotation. He's now done with year 2 of med school and ready for some serious research!
