Excited to announce our latest work on how MRSA conquers antibiotics. We used #AFM & #ImageAnalysis to show that resistant S. aureus cells have an alternative mode of division to ensure survival. This is an amazing collaborative work from @Sheffield_AFM and @foster_Lab. 🔬🧫📊
Some incredibly exciting work coming from the collaboration between @Sheffield_AFM and @foster_lab. Here, @Olulana4 has shown that MRSA employs an alternate mode of division in order to survive in the presence of methicillin. science.org/doi/10.1126/scie…

Tijdens de #Covid19 pandemie moesten er van de PVV “meer IC bedden bij” (analogie: grotere dweil) De GGD is de partij die de “kraan 🚰 dicht kan draaien” door BCO, #preventie, vaccinatie - en daar wordt op bezuinigd🤨 Weet u het zeker ⁦@ministerVWS⁩? volkskrant.nl/binnenland/age…

Onze bestuurders hebben een serieuze dosis interdisciplinariteit nodig om voorbij hun eigen vakgebieden en stokpaardjes heen te kijken. Ik hoop dat dat gebeurt, ik vrees voor bedrijfsmatige tunnelvisie en verharding. Maar toch, lees dit eens: boom.nl/media/26/40_stelling…

Onderwijs en onderzoek zijn cruciaal om de grote, complexe vraagstukken van onze tijd aan te pakken. Toch bezuinigt het kabinet-Schoof €1 miljard op hoger onderwijs en wetenschap. Actie is nodig. Teken de petitie ook ⤵️ campagnes.degoedezaak.org/ca…

My lab is up and running and just needs enthusiastic phage biologists to populate it! Contact me or apply in the link if you are interested in a postdoc exploring plasmid-dependent phage biology in beautiful (and super affordable!) upstate New York🍎healthresearch.wd1.myworkday… 1/3

Three quarters of all international students will leave if all bachelor programmes switch to Dutch, according to research by UG economists Ahmed Skali and Harry Garretsen. This would cost universities nearly 9 percent of their budget. ukrant.nl/research-switching…
