Poster competition – International Pathology Day 2024

The theme of this competition focused on ‘Conquering superbugs: Innovations in combating AMR’. The competition invited people worldwide to showcase what they have been working on individually or as part of a team, to highlight innovative research across the various pathology specialties.
A range of research ideas across all specialties was highly encouraged – from the event’s theme to more general pathology-related work that entrants are proud of and wanted to spotlight.
Professor Tahir Pillay, RCPpath Clinical Director of International Activities, Dr Natasha Ratnaraja, Chair of the Medical Microbiology and Medical Virology Specialty Advisory Committee and Dr Jeff Allen, RCPath Lay Adviser, evaluated entries based on a variety of criteria.
