CMB course in Australia DAY12

Last day of the workshop. Started the day with Analysis of Network. It is an interesting but complex program to link all the microbes, environmental factors etc in a huge network. Imagine a computer network, but in this case, all the computers and hardware are replaced with bacteria, viruses and other microbes. It is a new way to look at things. And according to the presenter, this field is very new. There are only 2 presenters on microbial networks in the last ISME conference. 

Afternoon is a re-cap of the whole course, feedback and any last minutes questions. After that, there is a BBQ, and just social. Nothing too exciting. Just sitting around and chatting. People playing around with Kookaburra, being stupid etc. I was having a migraine whole day, and just couldn't stand the high pitch laughing, shouting etc. Thus, after dinner and a bit more of mingling, I found the chance to excuse myself. I thank SueHelen Egan for organising the workshop, promise to keep in contact with various other people, and quietly excuse myself to my bedroom.

Tomorrow, I am going back to Auckland. I am ready to go home. :)
