Delivery of therapeutic molecules is a major bottleneck for treating a wide range of diseases. Today we describe a new modality for delivering proteins based on an engineered contractile injection system @nature https://t.co/eIAn8MW6jN

ChatGPT is everywhere and everyone is using it.

But most academics don't know how to use it *smartly.*

Here's how to use ChatGPT intelligently (and ethically) for academic purposes:

#SCELSESeminarSeries is back with a bang with Prof Eric Alm from @MIT USA as our first speaker. He will be presenting some of his human microbiome research. Mark your calendars for 10.30am, next Thursday! See you there. #talk #science

Scientists spend too much time taking “professional selfies”.

A paper from PNAS describes what it takes to be a scientist today. Key points (that I always emphasize myself):

More, better & shared surveillance data is the way forward to staving off the next pandemic. A shout out to my colleagues and collaborators working on antimicrobial resistance and wastewater surveillance! #smart and #scelse 2/2

[Wei Lin Lee @WLin_Lee]

This week I was at the 7th World One Health Congress, where they reemphasized the importance of surveillance of antimicrobial resistance & viral diseases and that we cannot afford to fly blind! 1/2

@KimInGeneva Thank you @KimInGeneva for your support in making this possible, and thank you @KaylieLam1 for teaching me the ropes! Enterococcus faecalis is such a fascinating microbe to study!

[Kimberly Kline 🏔 @KimInGeneva]

First findings of a fun new collaborative research direction for our team, together with MIT's Pete Dedon. This part impressively spearheaded by @WLin_Lee.

Coming together for an Intra-CREATE workshop were researchers from #SCELSE, SMART, @NUSingapore & E2S2 for a discussion on sewage-based #surveillance in Singapore on 11 Aug 2022.
The event ended on a high with a lab tour at @NEAsg led by SCELSE alum, Martin Tay. #collaboration
