Congratulations Steve, a fitting award recognising your contribution advancing veterinary science. Appreciate your thoughtfulness in everything you do. and for being a friend above all.

[Menzies Research @MenziesResearch]

Congratulations to Steven Sydney Davis for receiving a Member of the Order of Australia (AM) for his groundbreaking work in veterinary virology! His mentorship at Menzies with our Global and Tropical Health Division & our Timor-Leste team inspires future researchers.

Findings from AMR surveillance in chickens in Timor-Leste. 🐔���

Product of teamwork between Menzies, MALFF and many others. 🤝

Hope this encourages other developing countries to publish their findings.📚

A nice reset over the new year period and remembering who we are outside of work!

Just an ordinary day in our research office, in Darwin... (🐍 opposite my husband's desk) @shawn_ting

Working with a great team at Menzies. @thefrancis6 @sirileok @microinpictures

New research is underway in Timor-Leste 🇹🇱 aiming to reduce transmission of #brucellosis, a zoonotic disease affecting cattle & humans.

Led by @MenziesResearch, the research is part of a #OneHealth program funded by #ACIAR & @IDRC_CRDI 🇦🇺 🇨🇦

Thanks Jolyon at @newsGPau for interviewing myself and A/Prof Asanga Abeyaratne at @MenziesResearch

We share our thoughts on potential uses of LLMs in medicine, how doctors can respond to AI technology in a balanced way, and discuss privacy issues that have been in the media.

(2/2) Patient was pretty suspicious of everyone to begin with. What a difference a caring team makes to GP work (Aboriginal health workers, nurses, care coordinators, specialists etc)!

[Shawn Ting @shawn_ting]

Thank you @ACIARAustralia and @IDRC_CRDI for the opportunity to strengthen the response to brucellosis and the #onehealth system in Timor-Leste.

[ACIAR @ACIARAustralia]

We’re funding new research with @MenziesResearch in Timor-Leste 🇹🇱 to reduce brucellosis transmission in livestock 🐄

The research is part of a new #OneHealth program we're funding in partnership with Canada's @IDRC_CRDI 🇦🇺🇨🇦 #AIRPOH 🌏

Check out the article below by @ACIAR, as Menzies researcher and project lead Dr @shawn_ting shares an insight into our work with @mdsTimorLeste & the Timor-Leste Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries on combating brucellosis using #OneHealth strategies.

[Shawn Ting @shawn_ting]

@DrWinnieChen Congrats on the presentation. Nice to be on this journey together.

Timely publication during #WAAW. This article investigates antibiotic use among government animal health workers in Timor-Leste. We are excited to continue to work alongside MAF to address various recommendations from this paper.

(2/2) Behind the scenes: great to arrive at journal publication but not to ignore the long road getting there (1 transfer, 1 reject, 5 separate peer review reports, many revisions)! 👟🧳🛣️

[Winnie Chen @DrWinnieChen]

(1/2) How accurate are EHR-based algorithms in identifying patients with CKD, diabetes, HTN & CVD?

Great to have this PhD work published! 😌

Sharing our recent research findings on antibiotic use among smallholder pig farmers. Almost none of the farmers have ever used antibiotics in their pigs, but most reported the lack of access to veterinary services as the reason for not using antibiotics. https://t.co/ECrvs8dLmV

#AfricanHorseSickness can kill 95% of infected equines. 🐴 🐎

Being prepared to take action is key to reducing the impacts of AHS on horses.
