#28 Alice and the tick microbiome (Japan)
Jan 28, 2024 Season 2 Episode 28

Ticks have a microbiome, too. They carry essential symbionts and sometimes less essential members like Borrelia. Our host Dr Cat Vendl and her guest Dr Alice Lau explore the secrets of tick microbiome, but also chat about what it’s like to move to different countries to follow one’s academic career. Alice is an expert in this. She speaks at least four languages fluently and loves to get to know new cultures. Alice is currently based in Tokyo.

Dive into the world of tick bacteria and being sometimes lost in translation with the Wildlife Health Talks. 

We'd love to hear from you ... share your thoughts, feedback and ideas.
