Norovirus causes my most hated illness 🤢🤮 @JordanSLCW is studying gut microbiome to see if bacteria in our gut can guard us from gastro! #unimelbscicomm

The claim that “the eyes are the window into the soul” mightn’t be based in science, but @jonathanvnlay’s work on Alzheimer’s disease is. He’s looking at early detection methods by looking at the retina 👁#unimelbscicomm

Immunotherapies have seen success in melanoma and other nasty cancers, can they shed light on ovarian cancers? 💡@m_hendleyy is working to ‘light-up’ ovarian cancer cells with DNA damage to give the immunotherapy something to fight #unimelbscicomm

Okay, all these physicists are turning me to the dark side, how do I switch to a physics masters? @a_ritter_darkly's assymmetric dark matter models are mind blowing: using mirror higgs' fields to build model parameters sounds UNREAL! #unimelbscicomm

[Mike Mews @mikesmuons]

What does the dark matter world look like? Are there people made of dark matter giving their own UniMelbScicomm talks going on right now? @a_ritter_darkly #unimelbscicomm

[Mike Mews @mikesmuons]

Dark matter could be connected to the antimatter asymmetry according to @a_ritter_darkly with a ‘dark sector’ #unimelbscicomm

[Mike Mews @mikesmuons]

More dark matter!! Can @a_ritter_darkly solve all our previous physics problems in one go? #unimelbscicomm

[Mike Mews @mikesmuons]

@jiyuch is using machine learning to model the toxicity of medical treatments as a tool for doctors. Sounds like a precursor to Baymax 😮 #Badaladala #unimelbscicomm

[Mike Mews @mikesmuons]

With soft-wood plantation rates falling will we have enough particle board to build new homes? Could will this affect housing affordability?@Mcamwon #unimelbscicomm

[Mike Mews @mikesmuons]

Sheep-shearers suffer greatly in their line of work. Can robots lend a hand to stave off back-pain?@robinsonmc91 #unimelbscicomm

@DTMarcantonio finding a particles long lost cousin using a new global Tree Fitter to reconstruct B Mesons #unimelbscicomm

[Mike Mews @mikesmuons]

@DTMarcantonio is working out why we didn’t get annihilated at the start of the universe #unimelbscicomm

[Mike Mews @mikesmuons]

More physics??? At least it’s not dark matter... @DTMarcantonio #unimelbscicomm

[Mike Mews @mikesmuons]

Southern brown bandicoots are being attacked on all sides from fire and foxes, @lauratownhop is modelling their population, and how humans have impacted this cute furry animal #unimelbscicomm

Gamma rays plaguing your dark matter detector? @LachMilligan is the man for you, making detection possible by removing backgrounds #unimelbscicomm

[Mike Mews @mikesmuons]

Untreated rheumatic fever leads to high death rate in young people with rheumatic heart disease. It has long treatment periods that many don’t finish. Could treatments be made easier? @KateGeography is going to find the biggest hurdles #unimelbscicomm

[Mike Mews @mikesmuons]

Is immunotherapy the answer for future Glioblastoma patients? Understanding the compositions of GBM immune cells may allow for treatments to give prognoses that aren’t so fatal @Yitong_F #unimelbscicomm

[Mike Mews @mikesmuons]

What do macular degeneration and Kidney disease IgA have in common? @YuchuanLiu4 is discussing their genetic link and the possibility of new treatments! #unimelbscicomm

[Mike Mews @mikesmuons]

Australia is the Melanoma capital of the world. While melanoma can be quite resistant to treatment, @Peohan_W is looking at the CDK4 pathway, common to most melanoma. Could this be it’s Achilles heal? #unimelbscicomm
