Prenatal antibiotics and neonatal sepsis
Click a page to enlarge.


I analysed a published study investigating how prenatal antibiotic exposure affected breast milk IgA, the gut microbiome of mouse offspring and susceptibility to neonatal bacterial sepsis.
The assignment required me to interpret the study's experimental methods, findings and limitations, then present the research as though I were a co-author.
I developed a scientific poster and delivered a seven-minute presentation followed by a formal question-and-answer session. The assessment tested my understanding of the study design and ability to defend the interpretation of its results.
