The DOH lab is heading to Uganda! We are organising a Nanopore workshop to support colleagues from Ugandan ministries (CPHL, NADDEC and MWE) in enhancing their existing AMR surveillance through the integration of high-resolution genomic data. Learn more: https://t.co/CdBIYd9tLX
Tomorrow is the big day - ION BRU March 2023! As is customary, I will now spend the afternoon advertising each speaker's talk using only GIFs. Let's go!

A Wee Reminder: Applications close 4th Jan for a PhD scholarship to work on AMR with the amazing duo of Dr Adrian Muwonge and Dr Stella Mazeri at the Roslin Institute! @AdrianMuwonge@stellamazeri@roslininstitute https://t.co/hXbHRTKCSG
New study from @jrossfitz@roslininstitute and colleagues highlights importance of regular sampling of water systems and genome sequencing of Legionella in preventing outbreaks of disease ⤵️

Thanks for the wonderful hosting @DrPrernaVohra @bawee@LynskeyLab and to all those who stayed on for the ECR session, your questions and enthusiasm were brilliant #edinburgh
My apologies to anyone planning to come to my talk in the Gen&Gen Forum at #Microbio22 today. Unfortunately, I caught COVID and have had to cancel. A blog post by @ericfevre nicely sums up the story behind the work https://t.co/RKvO8GiUeF
Excited to be at #Microbio22 (in person!) to present a poster today on antibiotic resistance in urban and hospital wastewater metagenomes, poster number A024.
@WvSchaik Lovely commentary, Willem. Hopefully the lessons learned from this study will encourage even larger studies looking at bacterial strain-sharing in the future! Feels like we've only just scratched the surface.
Wow I can see Phylogroup A, B1 and even the usually human associated B2 clade (red) sticking out! 10/10 for scientific accuracy and 11/10 for delicious shortbread. Nice work @deirdremcclean1
"This translated to just under 10,000 petri dishes for microbial culture and 12,500 cryovials of frozen samples".
A HUGE effort from the amazing team in Nairobi that laid the groundwork for this project!
