@CholestasisDoc Thank you, Palak!

[Amanda Rossiter-Pearson @DrMicroMandroid]

Delighted to see our work published. Read about our recent study @unibirmingham below and how we hope to translate this to a new treatment for the prevention of stomach cancer.

[UoB School of Infection, Inflammation & Immunology @UoBinfectionsch]

The discovery of 'leaking' bacteria across stomach lining in pre-cancer could be the missing link in #GastricCancer development, according to @unibirmingham researchers.
The study opens an exciting new avenue of research into preventing #StomachCancer.

Very proud supervisor; so well deserved Harriet! Watch this space for our recently accepted paper to learn more about our work on the gastric microbiome in gastric cancer

[Harriet @harriet_jg]

So happy to share that I passed my PhD viva yesterday with minor corrections 🎉 A huge thank you to @kim_hardie & @hall_lab for being fantastic examiners, @DrMicroMandroid, @krobinson204, @CShannonLowe & Jeff for being great supervisors ❤️ I can’t believe I am finally #PhDone 🥂

@krobinson204,@Boc_Lab and I have a MRC-funded PhD (see link below- deadline 10th Jan). At the Uni's of Birmingham, Oxford and @RosFrankInst, you will use advanced organoid and microscopy technologies to understand how we can target the microbiome for stomach cancer prevention.

Come and join Lucy and I to determine the delicate balance between commensals and pathogens during intestinal infections, all using state-of-the-art intestinal organoids. Competitive interview process for a MIBTP PhD position, so please get in touch if you’re interested!

[Lucy Crouch-Myers @LucyICM]

MIBTP PhD applications are now open! There are three associated with my lab. 1) infant gut microbes and human milk oligosaccharides with @hall_lab 2) respiratory microbiome nutrition with @MikeyJ 3) mucus-producing organoids with @DrMicroMandroid

Brilliant talk on h. Pylori and gastric carcinogenesis by @DrMicroMandroid today at @AUSSOCMIC #asm2024 Featuring BEAUTIFUL microscopy!! 🤩🤩🤩 @IMIBirmingham

[Amanda Rossiter-Pearson @DrMicroMandroid]

Buzzing to be at the final day of the #aurora leadership programme. It has been so refreshing to meet such inspirational leaders within the HE community. It’s going to be a good day!

[Amanda Rossiter-Pearson @DrMicroMandroid]

Asking for a friend, obviously, but at what point in time did the term 'descriptive' become a bad thing? Must mechanism always define importance?

[Amanda Rossiter-Pearson @DrMicroMandroid]

@JessicaMABlair @BritSciAssoc @IMIBirmingham Congratulations, Jess!! 🎉

[Lucy Crouch-Myers @LucyICM]

@CassieBakshani giving a fantastic talk on her work on Akkermansia enzymes breaking down host glycans #cbm15 #glycotime

[Amanda Rossiter-Pearson @DrMicroMandroid]

Really looking forward to presenting my lab's latest data on the ecology of the gastric microbiota during carcinogenesis next week. Looks like a really interesting programme!

[Wellcome Connecting Science Learning and Training @eventsWCS]

Join us online for #CancerEvoEco24 for an excellent programme exploring the #cancer ecosystem. #AcademicChatter

Register a virtual place by 30 April to hear from experts including:
@RFitzgerald_lab, @ATJCagan, and several @sangerinstitute colleagues.
