Eric Davis, WG'96

Hello again from sunny Sydney, Australia – The Land Down Under.  I am now just over 1 year into my work with Microba Lifesciences, an early stage growth company and leader in metagenomic diagnostic testing of GI disorders.  The most significant new “news” for Microba is that we have acquired and merged with a somewhat similar company in the UK, so my new life includes lots of late-night calls to the UK.

As of 3 weeks ago, I would say that I was enjoying the best fitness of the last decade, having just completed a 100 kilometer ultra running event, and beginning to prepare for various Spring cycling and ocean swimming events. But last weekend, I was hit by a car while riding my bike, resulting in a broken tibia. The surgical repair job was quite precious, so I can’t put weight on the broken leg for at least 2 months and probably won’t be able to walk without crutches until perhaps 3-4 months from now.

So I’ll have lots of newfound spare time on my hands and would love “shouting a fizzy drink” to anybody who is passing through if you will come to the leafy Northern suburbs, 6 miles North of the Harbor Bridge.

Cheers to you all!
