Researchers at the @otago, led by @warring_l & @Hazel_Sisson_, are tackling kiwifruit canker caused by Pseudomonas syringae pv. actinidiae (Psa) using innovative endolysin fusion proteins: https://t.co/8TBpx9BUMW @ASBMB@jbiolchem
Massive congrats to @Hazel_Sisson_ for her outstanding mahi & PhD grad yesterday. In a case of perfect timing our final paper from Hazel's PhD was published online in JBC yesterday as well! 🥳(https://t.co/ak8wuMLDVt). Please check it out, I have given a quick summary in a 🧵 👇
A new perspective piece highlights how #phages, phage-derived proteins & organic acids offer potential as biocontrols for fruit crop pathogens, and where the field is moving to next

Excited to share my first co-corresponding opinion piece written in collaboration with the wonderful @MojganRabiey https://t.co/eiMqFzF64q. We cover our thoughts on advancements in phage biocontrol for agricultural pathogens and where the field might develop next.
Finally at #BMH2024! Couldn’t help but expose twitter to the creation @ShaharnC and I made for #Serratia day earlier this month for the BMH2024 baking competition 💕💗💖🌸🐷🎀 May the best baked item win (although ours is pretty slay ✨) @bmh2024Melb
It was a privilege to present the work @Hazel_Sisson_ and I have been doing in @PeterFineran's lab in collaboration with @BriersYves. Thanks to the organizing committee @VoM_2024 for giving me the opportunity to present.
Fantastic presentation from @warring_l in the synthetic biology session at #VoM2024 unveiling the work we have been doing on engineering endolysins against the gram-negative kiwifruit pathogen Psa! 🥝🦠🎉
Super proud to have presented the phage endolysin - citric acid synergy against Psa to an engaging international crowd at #Microbio24 in Edinburgh on Monday👩🔬🥝 fascinating research and amazing scientists! Thank you @MicrobioSoc for the opportunity to share!
Very appreciative to have my recent paper 🔦spotlighted 🔦 as an article of significant interest in the latest issue of AEM. Check it out if you haven't already 🥝🦠 https://t.co/QqzvNZFx0T
Very excited to have a review out in Current Opinion in Microbiology covering the use of endolysins against Gram-negatives and how we can overcome the obstacle of the outer membrane! 🦠✨🧐🤠

✨🥝Ecstatic to have the first paper from my PhD out now in Applied and Environmental Microbiology! We discovered a phage endolysin which synergizes with citric acid to effectively reduce the kiwifruit pathogen Psa! 🥝✨👩🔬🧪🦠🥳 https://t.co/naETHqeWKV
Thank you @nzsbmb for an awesome conference and the opportunity to share my research. Proud to have won Best Student Presentation in Infectious Disease, kindly sponsored by the Center for Anti-Microbial Research at the University of Auckland.
