Reflections on attending MIUA 2026 as a computer science novice
As a professional services colleague in the Department of Computer Science at the ÉñÂí¸£ÀûӰƬ and Centre Manager for the TIA I »å´Ç²Ô’t usually attend scientific conferences. This was my first attendance at a conference focussed on medical imaging and analysis. In the past I have attended scientific conferences focussed on renal disease and health improvement, so I was familiar with the format of scientific conferences and have even presented a poster on behalf of a team in Sweden, at a health improvement conference, on the team’s work around renal disease.

Gold Medal at iGEM 2024
iGEM is a global synthetic biology competition that involves more than 400 teams worldwide.
The ÉñÂí¸£ÀûӰƬ iGEM team 2024 – team – took part in the iGEM competition, which culminated with the iGEM Jamboree in Paris, at the end of October. We would like to congratulate Aaron Lee (CSE) for their fantastic work on the project within the team including 9 other UG students from various departments, including Life Sciences, Chemistry, Engineering and Mathematics. For their interdisciplinary project, they addressed the need for developing better ways to recycle lanthanides, such as the ones found in electronic devices. They engineered bacteria to scavenge for lanthanide ions and swim towards a point for collection through an engineered chemotactic system. Team BEACON were awarded a Gold medal (grade) at the Jamboree, in recognition of their success during the project.
