Callum Rimmer

Fantastic to see the first paper from @Callum_Rimmer_'s PhD thesis published in Microbial Genomics. A brilliant achievement and a strong foundation for the rest of the project. Congratulations! microbiologyresearch.org/content/journa…

Just under a month left to apply for NTU PhD Studentships (deadline Feb 14th). Anyone interested in #AMR there's a project with my group to study the use of short interfering RNAs to reduce antimicrobial resistance in pathogenic bacterial species. tinyurl.com/56ym38a9

NTU's internally funded PhD studentships are now advertised. Come study with us in @AROM_NTU, using short-interfering RNAs to combat antimicrobial resistance. Deadline is 14 Feb 2025. Get in touch if your are interested or have questions. tinyurl.com/56ym38a9 Please RT.

So happy to see this out in preprint with @JThomas_CoNS. Detection of positive selection driving antimicrobial resistance in the core genome of Staphylococcus epidermidis. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Congrats to @Callum_Rimmer_ on a great presentation and resulting prize at the @NottmTrentUni STAR (Science and Technology Annual Research) conference this week. @AROM_NTU

Interested in studying for a PhD in Nottingham? Come join us to work on downregulating staphylococcal virulence factors using small interfering RNAs. ntu.ac.uk/study-and-cour… @dp_negus @AROM_NTU

Congratulations to @con_meehan and @Mabi_Behruznia on their recent publication! Borderline rpoB mutations transmit at the same rate as common rpoB mutations in a tuberculosis cohort in Bangladesh microbiologyresearch.org/content/journa…

Job posting is now live! Open until 13th October, interviews end of October. RA in bioinformatics, please see job description at the end of the post and contact me for any questions. vacancies.ntu.ac.uk/Job/JobDetail?…

I put together a somewhat extensive course for intro to pathogen genomics analysis, which I trialed here in Kigali these past 2 weeks. Please share with anyone you think may benefit from it. conmeehan.github.io/PathogenDataCo… A mini-🧵overview of its content:

Congratulations to @Cait_wildsmith on the first preprint from her PhD work with @dp_negus and @JThomas_CoNS. Lots more to come from Caitlin in the future. Complete genome sequence of Staphylococcus casei strain DSM 15096 microbiologyresearch.org/content/journa…

We have a project in our group available for this round of the @nottm_bbsrc_dtp, in collaboration with @addyblanch, @dralhubb and @dp_negus

P366 - Identifying genes under positive selection in the core-genome of Staphylococcus epidermidis @Callum_Rimmer_ Ferran Navarro, @JThomasNTU

Research Fellow in #Microbiology position available with @SamMacX13, to work on an Innovate UK project determining mechanism(s) of action for a novel set of ruthenium-based antimicrobials. vacancies.ntu.ac.uk/Job/JobDetail?… Closing date for applications is 21 February 2023. #jobs

🚨Fully-Funded Studentship 🚨available with myself @NTUSciTech. The project will use a variety of approached to identify and map AMR to β-lactam/β-lactamase inhibitors. Please get in touch if interested/want to discuss! More details in 🧵below (1/4) ntu.ac.uk/research/find-…

I rarely get a message on LinkedIn, but wasn't expecting that 😀

Congratulations to @Callum_Rimmer_ on the publication of his genome sequence of a Staphylococcus edaphicus strain with @JThomasNTU. journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/mr…

Had a great evening yesterday at the @TrentUni Team Excellence Awards celebrating the success of the Bioskills at Home team in creating opportunities for undergraduate students.

@con_meehan It’s why I still love my windows desktop. WSL 2 is great, and I can use files on OneDrive cloud as input and direct the output there as well 😁

@Callum_Rimmer_ Yea thats another issue. There are many issues on the mac so I'm just going to go back to Dropbox

Ive been desperately trying to use OneDrive for file sharing but it truly is not made for bioinformatics. It seems that the path to a file must be less than 280 characters long, ruling out most of my genomics projects with detailed file structures. Why is that a requirement?!
