We're delighted that researchers from @unibirmingham have been awarded two of four prestigious grants available from @BBSRC to develop projects which have potential to lead to major new contributions to biological knowledge. @UoBmedicalsci @UoBinfectionsch birmingham.ac.uk/news/2025/birm…

@i_Grobas @NatureComms @i2sysbio @CSIC @CSICdivulga @MSCActions Amazing!!!!! Congratulations!!!!

How do mechanical forces influence cell division in bacteria? Find the answer in nature.com/articles/s4146… @NatureComms. We found that buckling in E. coli filaments modulates the Min system and creates a mechanical "memory" for division @i2sysbio @CSIC @CSICdivulga @MSCActions

Yesterday was pure magic. 🎓✨ Happy tears, proud cheers, big smiles, and all of Maples Pavilion singing "You are my sunshine" in an unforgettable moment. Congratulations to the Stanford Medicine Class of 2025! Relive the moment—watch the full ceremony: youtu.be/JhCvnIObUDY

@ilyas_alav @wellcometrust @Dunn_School Congratulations Ilyas!!!!

I am ecstatic to announce that I’ve been awarded a @wellcometrust Early Career Award! I couldn’t have done it without everyone who helped me along the way! I will join @Dunn_School to do some exciting science on efflux pumps for the next 5 years!

@Nevotii @RhoyStarkiller @cellsystems Massive congratulations!!!!!!!

C. acnes is the most abundant bacterium on human skin. But what if we could make it the smarterst? 🦠✨ In our new @cellsystems study, we programmed C. acnes to actively protect the skin for therapeutic applications! 🛡️ authors.elsevier.com/sd/article/S24…

@HaagmansRik Congratulations Dr Haagmans!!!

So excited that my first first-author paper is now published in Viruses! In this paper we looked at bias and reproducibility of RNA+DNA faecal virome metagenomic approaches, and compared reverse transcription and PCR amplification using WTA2 and SISPA. 1/4 mdpi.com/1999-4915/17/2…

@HaagmansRik @Invest_in_ME @TheQuadram Congratulations Rik!!!!!!

Delighted to announce that I successfully passed my PhD viva on Friday! Sadly, I forgot to take a photo in the heat of the moment, so you will have to take my word for it. Big thanks to Prof. Elisa Oltra and Prof. John Wain for the great experience!! @Invest_in_ME @TheQuadram

@DziegielAgata @DrWigley @EvelienAdri Congrats Doctor!!!!!!! So proud of you!

Excited to share that I passed my PhD viva today! Thank you so much to @DrWigley and @EvelienAdri for a great viva experience!

@JamesDoc93 @EvelienAdri @hall_lab @RyanCookAMR @Teag4Phage @raymond_kiu Congraaaats James!!!!!

After four tough old years, I have finally submitted my PhD thesis! 🎉 A massive thank you to my supervisory team, both past and present, for all your support! @EvelienAdri @hall_lab @RyanCookAMR @Teag4Phage @raymond_kiu Here’s to the future! 🎓

🎓 @NRPBIODTP PhD Opportunity! 🦠How does a Superbug evolve? with @ma_webber 🗓️ Apply by Monday 25 November 2024 ➡️ buff.ly/3Ny8Hjo

@Nevotii @_celera Enhorabuena Doctor🎓🎓🎓🎓🎓

Ha sido genial formar parte de @_celera durante estos años de tesis!

Please RT! fully funded PhD available with me and the wonderful @TheSullivanLab to explore how a clone of Staphylococcus capitis has evolved to infect neonates buff.ly/4hafYDx @TheQuadram @uniofeastanglia

Nice presentation from @ma_webber showing that you can induce biocide tolerance in lab settings. But does it translate into clinically significant biocide "resistance"? Short answer: not often. A different story with antibiotics! pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37648789/ #ip2024

Absolutely fascinating and huge amount of the data presented by @ma_webber on biocide tolerance and cross resistance to antibiotics. Interestingly biofilm not a mechanism for tolerance to biocides! #IP2024Conf
