In July 2023, Elvira and Charmaine attended the Viruses of Microbes (VoM) conference in Tbilisi, Georgia. This international event brought together researchers specializing in microbial virology. Elvira presented her research through a poster presentation, while Charmaine delivered an oral presentation in the main conference hall. Her talk highlighted our team’s cutting-edge work on green algal viruses and contributed to the broader scientific discourse. Both presentations were well-received. During their stay, the team also had the opportunity to briefly explore Tbilisi, gaining some insight into Georgia’s geography and culture.
