ESM Annual Congress 2025
meetings
tuberculosis
Several of us attended the 45th Annual Congress of the European Society of Mycobacteriology in Lisbon, Portugal. This is probably my favourite scientific meeting -- small, friendly and with plenty of time to talk, including organised social events.
Viki Brunner, Dylan Adlard and Philip Fowler all had posters and there were another three posters from the MMM Unit. At the least minute we were offered a short ten minute talk as another speaker could not travel so we gladly accepted the chance and Philip Fowler presented some work analysing 56,306 Mycobacterial samples sequenced by UKHSA between 2016 and 2024. The main aim was to develop and validate an approach that can identify the species present.
