2024 will be my last year on Twitter.
For the longest time it was a really construtive place to be. I’ve been having more fun at trevor-lithgow.bsky.social this year.
Please join me there if you’d like to stay in touch.

Beautiful work by MSc student Huanchang Chen from the 1st Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University and @MonashBDI investigating Klebsiella-phage cocktails @CentreImpactAMR @MonashUni #AMR nature.com/articles/s4152…

Closing off the presentation session @The_VIIN, @HelenIsInTheLab from @MonashBDI is talking about her very interesting research of how diabetes 2 (possibly!) blunts the immune response in mice, resulting in worse fungal infection outcomes.

A minimalist phage isolated from Wurundjeri Country is teaching us new things about incremental evolution toward new phenotypes. #mBio @LithgowLab @CentreImpactAMR @MonashBDI @KlebClub @KlebsPapers @TrevorLithgow journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/mb…

As Chair of the @WHO Task Force of AMR Survivors, I invite you to share our "AMR is Invisible. I am not." campaign. Alternatively, please reach out to one of our members or identify a patient story within your local community. This year’s WAAW theme is Educate. Advocate. Act Now. Let’s ensure we include the often unheard voices of those most affected by this global health threat. #AMRsurvivors #AMR #AntimicrobialResistance #WAAW

🚨Bacteriophages (phages) are viruses that prey on bacteria. This study sampled natural phage populations to test the hypothesis that untapped genetic variation within a population can be the basis for the selection to diversify the host-range of a phage. journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/mb…

Embracing minimalism - “owning only what adds value to your life” - this little #phage is revealing how to evolve new traits for host-killing without acquisition of new genes. Isolated on Wurundjeri country, in a very cool partnership @MonashBDI journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/mb…

@MacsysCoe we use mathematics to predict biology, from simple cell behaviors to the evolution of #AMR. Interested? There’s a week or so left to the deadline for a postdoc position in my lab for a microbiologist or molecular biologist monash.edu/jobs/template

Today is World Wombat Day!
On the theme of Treaty, collective strength and wombats, can anyone tell us the collective noun for wombats?

The second Article Spotlight for July is from Alain Filloux who gives an overview on bacterial protein secretion systems, their history, their nomenclature and why it can be misleading for newcomers in the field. Read the full article here 🔦👉microb.io/4cNEEyu
