yes, come and do a PhD @GlycoGriffith with me to understand gene regulation and host-interactions in order to design better treatments and vaccines against a range of bacterial pathogens. Only caveat is that male members of the lab must have a beard....








Finally published online - Zak's paper showing that an outer-membrane protein - Lav - from NTHi randomly switches expression, and is involved in host-cell adherence and biofilm formation journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/ia… 1/










So very exciting that two of Micro's own were able to patrticipate in this seasons MCW orchestra performance! 🎷 fb.watch/2HhauhlWG1/
