Starting 2025 with a preprint that's been a long time coming, done during my time with @WvSchaik, in collab with @hall_lab, where we look at Staphylococcus haemolyticus as a reservoir of antibiotic resistance genes in the preterm infant gut.

🚨 New preprint 🚨
With two excellent students Shalini Choudhary and Jacob Smith, we started looking at how the metabolic microenvironment of the urinary tract might affect uropathogenic E. coli evolution and response to antibiotics.

🚨 Alert! 🚨
Ever wondered how fungi navigate the microbial world? 🌱 Join @GraemeKettles and myself (as secondary supervisor) to explore how a key fungal pathogen of wheat interacts with other microbes during infection. Big questions and exciting discoveries await! @MIBTP_BBSRC
What is the fungal immune system, how does it work and how might NLRs be involved? We are looking for a @MIBTP_BBSRC PhD student to start in Oct '25 to help us answer these questions. For info and application👇warwick.ac.uk/fac/cross_fac/… email for informal queries
It's easy to celebrate our achievements, but often harder to recognize how far we've come.
Mabuhay ka EJ! Thank you for a job well done 🎉
4th? Not bad, EJ 🇵🇭👏
EJ Obiena fell short of the podium, but no one can deny that he showed up and displayed his skill as an athlete after recording a better placement in the #Paris2024 Olympics.

You were just so good, you just had to do it twice!
Mabuhay ka Carlos Yulo!! Here’s to making Philippine history! 🎉🎉🎉

Yay Megan!! 🥳
Super excited and honored to be on this list! Of course not possible without my amazing @LES_UniBham @UoBbiosciences colleagues. This funding enables me to further explore the ever evolving story of ToxAs journey through different fungi within Starship transposons! #UKRIFLF

One of the questions the @DiversiTree_UK project is asking:
How many species use Sitka spruce that we know of?
Hint: it’s more than people might think, with lots of caveats, like landscape connectivity, mgmt approach, and old-growth features on trees🌲

Microbial adaptability in changing environments

This Genome Watch article highlights the recent use of large-scale monitoring of natural microbiomes to examine feedback between environmental change and microbial adaptation. @sharGblum

As always, it’s been a blast attending the @MicrobioSoc Annual Conference! Thank you to the session organisers @kate_duncan and @ae_mather for giving me the chance to talk about what @DiversiTree_UK is up to. #Microbio24

Great to hear from @LillyCummins_ on the relics of E coli ST131 (just like the relics of the Roman Empire) #Microbio24

Well done @bluebirdsjunk for a great story on Staph haemo - Really cool to see this on stage #Microbio24
Really pleased to have representation from the Philippines at #Microbio24! Here’s Mark John Girasol on the very interesting R-loop in Trypanosoma brucei

The word #Microbiome is derived from the word "biome", i.e. a distinct environmental habitat, in which microbes occupy and are part of. A Microbiome is therefore a spatially distinct environment with unique bio-physical properties AND its associated microbes. 🦠+🏝️

Pleased to be presenting this afternoon in the Genetics and Genomics forum at 4pm, come along to hear about genomic relics as an alternative approach to combat MDR E. coli #Microbio24

I’m talking about metabolism and MDR at 14:45 today, come along if you’re at a loose end! #microbio24
ALT A schedule for Rebecca’s talk - 14:45 in Moorfoot entitled ‘Multidrug resistance plasmids commonly reprogramme expression of metabolic genes in E. coli’

I’ll be presenting my poster today on in vitro evolution of Enterococcus at #Microbio24 come along to poster B055 if you want to find out more!
Sadly my time with the
@RobWJackson lab has come to an end… Thanks to all who made my stay great! But my journey continues as I start today with @GraemeKettles and @McdonaldMeganc working on the wheat pathogen Zymoseptoria and how it evolves to overcome plant resistance! 🌾
