@ElliePursey @ksbakes @ElzeHesse @StinekevanHoute@edzewestra @WillHGaze You are so awesome Dr Ellie P! Wishing you all the best. You will be sorely missed but we will always look forward to hearing about your new discoveries & life adventures! 🌟🌟🌟👏👏🥂❤️🦠🧐🌍
We are supporting a number of events promoting the fabulous fungi and magnificent moulds on UK Fungus Day on October 8th. Come and enjoy some real fun-guys! @MRCcmm@BritSocMedMyc @BMS_Scientific; @ukfungusday@UofE_Research
📢Ever wondered if key messages in your #science#research outputs are being understood? #Researchpaper in @NIHRevidence by @Peninsula_ARC, @ExeterMed & Dr @alkegw highlight importance of creatively using effective & engaging #SciComm tools!👏👏🧐📢
🤯 As my time in Sweden for #EDAR6 comes to an end, I spent some time today exploring the coast and was shocked (but not surprised) to find the exact same #microplastic particles we’ve been studying in the UK with @UniExeCornwall and @PlymouthMarine as potential vectors of #AMR…
We are thrilled to be hosting an Open Doors event for the public to see "behind the scenes" of our research on 8th October. Find out more and come along to see us: https://t.co/XawD6e9Dlo #UKFungusDay
.@dr_anne_leonard (@ExeterMicrobes):
Human exposure to fecal born bacteria in waters:
Best assumed conditions people ingest 3 E.coli born ARGs from a single water sports session in british bathing waters. In bad conditions that number is increased by over 1000x.

Matt Jones (@befriendabacter) @ExeterMicrobes:
Systematic review of effects of antibiotic use on #AMR in cattle farms reveals steep increase upon administration with declines based on pharmacokinetic reduction in AB conc.
In feed administration appears to be favourable.
#EDAR6
Only 18 studies could be included in the metaanalysis by @befriendabacter as around 50% of studies which met all other criteria did not appropriately share data.
Make your data available to allow for subsequent knowledge gain and to create impact!

Patients need safe phages, but how do you confirm a phage batch is safe? This week in C&T, @JessicaSacher (@Iredell_Lab/@PhageAustralia) shares her recent foray into learning about phage QC & working toward setting up a basic phage QC system in the lab. https://t.co/tNPkdquJqO
This week is National Inclusion Week – @IncEmp dedicates this week to celebrating inclusion and taking action to create inclusive workplaces. Find out more about ‘Why Microbiology Matters’ and EDI on our website: https://t.co/u8fTdTiZbJ
@HelmutBuergmann is estimating that as many resistant bacteria might be entering Swiss waters through the 3-4% of wastewater that enter untreated during bypass events as from the 96-97% treated wastewater.
Interventions are merited!
