The Australian Society for Microbiology WA Branch and the Marshall Centre welcome an eminent international guest speaker, Professor Stephen Bentley.

Prof Stephen Bentley leads a research team at the Wellcome Sanger Institute near Cambridge in the UK. Over the last two decades, his research has pioneered the application of genomic technologies to understand the biology of bacterial pathogens. Over that period his work has developed from annotation of genes in the early reference genomes, through the emergence of population genomics, to the current developments in respiratory metagenomics and mathematical modelling of evolution and spread.
