@amandaunsw @AUSSOCMIC @LanlabUnsw @compbiosan @AliceZhengXu Haha sorry @amandaunsw!

@mjohnpayne @AUSSOCMIC @LanlabUnsw @compbiosan @AliceZhengXu Thank you Amanda for taking the amazing photo 😅

Thank you to @AUSSOCMIC for the ECR poster prize at #2022ASM. What a great meeting! Looking forward to next year! Congrats also to all the other members of @LanlabUnsw who contributed. @compbiosan, @AliceZhengXu, Dalong Hu and Ruiting Lan!

Come have a chat tonight at poster 112 at #2022ASM where I am presenting a new genomic nomenclature for Bordetella #pertussis using multilevel genome typing (MGT) developed in @LanlabUnsw. Also check out @compbiosan's poster 147 on our online database: mgtdb.unsw.edu.au!

Check my ePoster #209 of #2022ASM about plasmids contributing to the persistent colonisation of Listeria monocytogenes in the food markets @LanlabUnsw. It is a collaborative project with China CDC, and also an ongoing study of my previous research.

Super excited to share our latest work in the @jaitreeau lab published in @NatureComms detailing how a regulatory mRNA 3’UTR mediates vancomycin tolerance in a clinical vancomycin-intermediate Staph isolate. 🧵 1/3 nature.com/articles/s4146…

@emma__harding @GraceJHYan @WhiteLabUNSW @UNSWBABS Congratulations Grace!!

Massive congratulations to @GraceJHYan for submitting her PhD thesis today! It's been a huge effort over many years culminating in the 200+ page document 📖 Now to celebrate! 🎉 #PhDone @WhiteLabUNSW @UNSWBABS

A summary 🧵of @LanlabUnsw latest Australian Bordetella pertussis genomics paper, just published in Emerging Microbes & Infection. Paper led by @AliceZhengXu who examined the microevolution of 385 B. pertussis strains across two epidemics from 2007-2018. tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…

Check out the great work from @hirokisuyama1 @LanlabUnsw His first ever pre-print. More info about the paper below 👇

Followed by another terrific session!

Fantastic talks to start the @UNSWBABS Symposium!

I am going to give a seminar talk at University of Technology Sydney about #genomic #epidemiology of #Salmonella Enteritidis using a global database MGTdb @LanlabUnsw Please join us online on 27th April (this Wed) at 12:30 p.m. AEST.  zoom link: utsmeet.zoom.us/j/89426903922

ShigEiFinder version 1.3 released! Includes fixes and updates that resolve issues raised in this excellent recent paper by @iman__yassine and @weill_xavier nature.com/articles/s4146…. Accuracy now over 92% in routine surveillance! @LanlabUnsw #Shigella #EIEC. github.com/LanLab/ShigEiF…
