This past year in MICR 221 and MICR 290 @queensu, we held agar art competitions ('drawing' bacterial cells on agar). We were blown away by the creativity of the students in these labs! Here is a selection of the winners, as voted for by other students @DbmsTweets @QueensUHealth

Congrats to lab group member Laila Masalha on an excellent BMED 897 seminar describing all of her work developing new diagnostics for carbapenemase-producing organisms! #AMR @DbmsTweets @queensu

[Christopher Lohans @ctlohans]

Our lab @queensu @DbmsTweets is very happy to welcome new and returning undergrad researchers Aditi, Bella, Jinny, Kristen, and Nicole to our group. Also very excited to welcome Emily from @SchofieldOxford for a @MitacsCanada supported internship! #AMR

Very happy to share @MitchellJeffs first paper from our lab! A biosensor strategy for quantifying beta-lactamase inhibition in a cellular context, prioritizing discovery of hits that work vs cells. #AMR @QueensUHealth @DbmsTweets https://t.co/QKJc2rgzVG
