We're Cardiff University ART LAB, a team with an aim to use art and film to engage artists and the public with antimicrobial resistance and microbiology.
We are thrilled that we have been invited to talk about the ART LAB project @MicrobioSoc#Microbio22 in the 'Tackling AMR as a community' session along with @cgroughton and @QuentinLclrc
See you in Belfast 4th-7th April!
Antimicrobial resistance (#AMR) is a slow-moving but clear and present danger, with potential to become the greatest future threat to human health. Learn more about our ‘Tackling AMR as a community’ session on Tuesday 5 April during Annual Conference 2022. microb.io/37BqZyu
Thank you @SreyashiBasu2 from @MicrobioSoc for visiting the ART LAB exhibition today @chaptertweets@CdfScienceFest! It was great to talk to you about our project and hear about your amazing public engagement work and the Society's future plans for raising awareness about #AMR
Stay safe out there today! 💨🌊
Our backup plan is ready and in action. We will be ready for you all come 2pm tomorrow!
See you at the @cardiffsciencefestival! 👋
📢 IMPORTANT
Due to the weather warning issued for tomorrow, setup for the exhibition must be postponed to Saturday morning.
Unfortunately this means we will have to delay opening the event until 2PM this Saturday.
We hope everyone stays safe and doesn't get blown away! 🌬️
With less than one month left until our exhibition, we thought it about time we reveal our lovely artists.
