The IgA response to microbiota in IBD-patients may uncover disease-modifying microorganisms and reveal improved biomarkers of disease progression, concludes @marceldezoete at @UMCUtrecht in a study by Dutch and American investigators in @CellHostMicrobe https://t.co/AB5Bsr9rRN

Our manuscript on the dissemination of E. faecium vanA resistance in Dutch hospitals is now published in Genome Medicine! https://t.co/A0s1ShE1l3 Interested in clonal vs plasmid/transposon dissemination? Check our work!
Thanks to @AnitaSchurch for leading this project

and @wvschaik and me had the opportunity to write a perspective on this.

The takeaway message? Be cautious in the use of colistin, for resistance can arise relatively easily.

Cool and important paper out from Malmstrom labs (Lund University) where they elucidated the structural details of StrepA M1 interaction with human IgG. Important for rational M-based vaccine design

Great to see that mlplasmids https://t.co/9TFNqaxQyS is a useful resource for the community. Will read in detail the manuscript @SamLipworth, congrats! :)

[Axel Janssen @AxelJans]

Really nice to have this paper out and highlighted by @ASMicrobiology!

Inhibiting the immune system can impede cancer treatment, how is still largely unclear. In a perspective for @NatRevImmunol @LindeMeyaard introduces a framework to classify different immune receptors which control the response: https://t.co/ZsDjZLkutb @UMCUtrecht @YaleMed

How every PhD students feels in the last months before submission [source; from Dutch television (Nieuwsuur)]
- I don't enjoy writing but to have written.
- I feel amazing once I'm done.
- The process itself is torture.
