Workshop Overview Many bacteria have very distinctive characteristics that once seen are not easily forgotten. However in a routine clinical microbiology laboratory, many of these are seen infrequently; this makes the process of building a “morphologic memory bank” a slow one.
This workshop will be an opportunity to see a large range of “memorable microbes” all in one day.
Participants will be given the opportunity to test their skills, as they examine cultures and Gram stains. The workshop is ideally suited to recent medical microbiology bench scientists, but the diversity of the organisms presented will ensure that even experienced bacteriologists will find the workshop of value.
