Congratulations to EASTBIO second-year PhD student, Ms Mimi Asogwa for winning the Journal of Medical Microbiology poster prize following her contribution to the April 2018 Microbiology Society’s Annual Conference in Birmingham.

The prize has not just monetary value but also includes an invitation to Mimi to submit an article to the Journal of Medical Microbiology; the article would describe all or part of the findings she has reported in her contribution to the Birmingham poster session.
