Thrilled to have presented my talk and poster at #CHRO2024 in stunning Perth, Australia. 🧫🧪🌅 An unforgettable experience made even more special by meeting Nobel laureate Prof. Barry Marshall.

@MeeraUnnikri Congratulations Meera!!

And finally- Professor ! A huge thank you to my lab members past and present, collaborators and mentors-could not done this without you!

Very interesting and exciting two days at #Microbio24 Pop by poster booth B366 if you want to hear about about my PhD year 1 work on metal-handling systems in Helicobacter pylori!

New paper from @Cambridge_Uni & AMRHAI Reference Unit of @UKHSA (@juliana_tropic, @theAMRdoc, @IzziePotterill, et al). We report a novel Globicatella species causing soft tissue infection and tenosynovitis in an immunocompetent man after cat bite injuries. doi.org/10.3201/eid290…

Our discovery of widespread MDR Staphylococcus capitis NRCS-A clone in neonatal units across UK is published. This work was sponsored by @UKHSA, led by @aliciad3, Dr B Pichon, @cstewartb, supported by @NHSuk, @derren_ready, @Leginnyella, @ElitaJaun, et al. doi.org/10.1016/j.jinf…

Very pleased that our new paper is out! pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac… Excellent work from Josh @MIBTP1 and Jaimee (Mbio @WarwickLifeSci ) in collaboration with @Chen_group . Thanks to @BBSRC for funding!

It’s officially out 🎉🎉 Very grateful to be part of this work during my URSS summer experience @WarwickLifeSci and special thanks to @MeeraUnnikri @JChengScience and everyone involved to make this happen. journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/jb…

I captured a bacterium #sneezing🤧 This E. coli bacterium is undergoing lysis (RIP) because of an infection with T4 #bacteriophages. It was forced by these viruses to build virus copies. Now they are released to infect other bacteria, kinda like sneezing on them. Gesundheit!

Why do some people develop persistent lung sequelae after severe COVID19? Our new PROSAIC consortium study now published @ScienceTM uses multi-omics to identify a causal role for neutrophils/NETS in driving this complication @ImperialInfect @ImperialNHLI science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

New preprint from the lab… this has involved several lab members over the years… but finally led by ⁦@JChengScience⁩ . The regulatory role of anti-sigma factor, RsbW, in Clostridioides difficile stress response, persistence and infection | bioRxiv biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Interested in learning the latest in bacterial infection biology and two research project placements in great labs? Look into our MRes programme in the Bacterial Pathogenesis & Infection stream. Admissions open, apply early! @CMBI_Imperial imperial.ac.uk/study/pg/medic…
