Enjoy some drinks and canapes whilst liaising with the trade partners to see and hear the latest in the industry.

Time to keep it all rolling. After an intense and stimulating day of presentations it's time to relax and interact in a casual environment with our trade partners and our second poster display. Work your way around the booths, enjoy drinks and canapes, network and ask questions of the poster presenters, all before heading out to enjoy the local Adelaide foody scene.

With so many posters to display we needed to add another night to explore and engage with presenters from across Australia. Take the time to discover the latest research and discovers the next generation of microbiologists. This is also your last opportunity to network, connect and collaborate in a social environment before the final day of programming.
