We will kick off with a session on Scientific Breakthroughs: Cutting Edge Microbiome Research Amid the Pandemic with immunity, vaccines and COVID-19 at the forefront. This broadcast will feature two high-level presentations from Prof David Lynn, EMBL Australia Group Leader and Program Director, The SAHMRI Precision Medicine Theme, and Prof Siew C NG, Director of Microbiota (ICenter MagIC ) at Hong Kong Science and Technology Park and Associate Director of Centre for Gut Microbiota Research, The Chinese University of Hong Kong.
