Massive thank you to Samuel Watkin and Claire Walker for writing todays guest blog linked Environment Network 2024 event on risk assessment #EN2024

Environment Network 2024: Environmental risk assessment what do we need to know? | Girlymicro (https://t.co/V60vjF93sc)

And another one from @SamWatkin7! Neonatal incubator decontamination examined. https://t.co/8bUIrmoOPA

@jonotter Thank you for writing this piece on our paper, it was a very enjoyable read! We also feel that the routine monitoring we did here may not be suitable for routine use, and that targeted surface monitoring can help identify transmission routes and guide interventions.

Is hydrogen peroxide vapour room #decontamination compatible with molecular pathogen detection from the #builtenvironment? Samuel Watkin delivers his verdict…

Great 1st group trip out for the Environmental Monitoring team @GreatOrmondSt (plus @SamWatkin7) to improve our learning around Legionella and how we can embed research and best practice in order to do it better @WMSoc1

Check out our paper looking at trends in culturable microbes on communal surfaces in a bone narrow transplant unit! Do high bacterial counts alone mean higher risk...?

[Prof Cloutman-Green🕷 ([email protected]) @girlymicro]

@SamWatkin7 it's out!!!!

[Sam Watkin @SamWatkin7]

Really excited that our review on Clostridioides difficile in paediatrics has been published!

[Prof Cloutman-Green🕷 ([email protected]) @girlymicro]

Super excited that our review on C. dif in paediatrics is published. Massive thank you to @MicrobioSoc for requesting it & to @SamWatkin7 for doing a lot of the heavy lifting. Also, shout out to my fellow author on twitter @TheHealthcareS1

Major FOMO about missing out on #FIS2023 today

On the upside, the paper I talked about in my session yesterday is now available frm @IPIP_Open on PPI & AMR #WAAW

Tnx 2 co-authors @NicoBalders @SamWatkin7 @HelenR27 @ADSMicro @drlenaciric @NosocomialThe

@girlymicro @TheHealthcareS1 @HelenR27 Throwback to the 2 days when I couldn't pour an agarose gel to save my life 😂

PhD Top Tips: So you've decided you want to start a PhD

It's that time of a year, the time of year when I get a no. of people who want to talk about doing a PhD. I thought it might be useful to share the questions I ask when we meet & why I ask them.

Always nice to see all your trains cancelled after a particularly long stint in the lab...

[Prof Cloutman-Green🕷 ([email protected]) @girlymicro]

Great to see @SamWatkin7 poster get so much attention at #asmicrobe

[Sam Watkin @SamWatkin7]

Really interesting rapid fire session on cleaning smarter, tracking phage spread in public spaces - large reductions in risk with targeted cleaning interventions #ASMicrobe

[Sam Watkin @SamWatkin7]

Fantastic first day at #ASMicrobe! Great talks on pathogen aerosols, organism sequencing and tickborne pathogens!

Tick borne infections. How will climate change impact this in the future…. #ASMicrobe
