Today, we are in sunny Cambridge discussing the progress of our @BBSRC #sLoLa project

[Dr Jess Buttress @JButtressSci]

So happy our pre-print on daptomycin mechanism of action is now out! Here, we present three main findings: i) daptomycin does not form large membrane pores in either B. subtilis or S. aureus, (1/3)

Thank you to the SAB team & @BBSRC Portfolio Manager for joining our meeting. Lots of new ideas, practical advice and encouraging feedback as we enter the 3rd year of this exciting project.

Super excited that our paper on isoniazid resistance in M. tuberculosis is now published in @NatureComms . Massive effort from all involved, especially lead author Cecilia Wang!!

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.

[Sakiusa Baleivanualala @SakiusaCabe]

Excited to share our new paper. https://t.co/H2XvUUia9B🚨🦠 This highlights the importance of infection control and AMR surveillance.

Had a great time networking and learning about all things Bacillus at #BACELL2024 in #Dubrovnik with the @HenrikStrahl lab and @GebhardLab

[Dr Jess Buttress @JButtressSci]

After my PhD, I went through a horrible transition to industry. Today I am at a conference with colleagues I class as friends presenting work I am so so passionate about ❤️
