Congratulations to the winning team 🥳👏🏻 trying to decipher the causative organism & routes of transmission of the contagion conundrum wasn’t easy…but they got there 👏🏻
And further kudos to all teams who won the mini quizzes too 🙌🏻
Hey NMES, can we do it all again now?! 😂🙋🏻♀️
Did you see this article a few weeks ago 👀🐱?! It may have helped with the contagion conundrum if so 😉

A huge thank you to NMES for the “Contagium Conundrum”👏🏻
A fantastic evening of Microbiology based problem solving, quizzing, & laughs all round. Who knew our consultants are such good actors 🤷🏻♀️😉
This organism is B-haemolytic on blood agar, forms Gram positive cocci in clusters, is catalase and slide/tube coagulase positive and was formally known as S.aureus clonal complex 75 before being re-classified in 2015 (Tong et al., 2011: Eshaghi et al., 2021) What am I?
A fastidious, capnophilic GNCB found as a commensal of the human oral pharynx. This difficult to grow organism is oxidase, catalase and urease negative and is linked clinically to cases of endocarditis, sinusitis, empyema and abscesses. What am I?

Great evening last week at the Nottingham/Derby IBMS Branch meeting. Fantastic and informative talks from Chris Ward on IBMS higher qualifications & Lorna Jones on the transition from the clinical lab to PHD in Microplastics.
Thank you and look forward to the next one 👏🏻🧫🧬🥼
