I have to say, I am genuinely proud of this. I'm proud of the work we have done, and will continue to do, to remove barriers to scientific exploration and seeding new communities of discovery. It's my name on the award, but I just represent a small part of a bigger team effort.
Huge congratulations to Dr Mark Pickering! @PickeringLab @ucddublin who received the RMS Chris Hawes Award for Outreach and Education at our AGM today at the @RoySocChem 👏👏👏

Was great to make a small contribution to this. Congrats Bing!
How could patients on antifungal prophylaxis still get infected by “susceptible” fungal strains? We try to crack this puzzle with a 5-year patient and mycobiome dataset from @MSKCancerCenter and 219 fungal genomes from three continents. 1/n nature.com/articles/s41591-0…
