How divine are these colorful creations?! These amazing strawberry cakes were made by Chef Cheryl Wakerhouser of @PixPatisserie with an assist from Chef Andrew Biggs of Hunt & Gather Catering. Just stunning. #IPNC2018 #throwback
#IPNC2018 NeissComm signing off! See you in South Africa!
Ellen Aho and Maggie So talk about inhibitory/antimicrobial effects of commensal oral Neisseria on other N’l species. For me: yet ANOTHER reason for not restricting mening-protein antigen vaccine carriage studies to looking for effects on carriage of invasive Nm strains #IPNC2018
Yonatan Grad on evolution & spread of antibiotic-resistant N. gonorrhoea. Some lineages acquire and maintain resistance much more efficiently than others.... #IPNC2018
Michael Jennings N. gonorrhoea pili bind to I-domain of cd11b/cd18 aka CR3 on cervical cells. Drugs including carbamazepine & MeDOPA block this interaction. Potential novel approach to treatment. I wonder whether people taking these drugs for CNS diseases are protected #IPNC2018
Characterization Nm isolates in Vietnam. #IPNC2018
Drop by poster P28 this evening to learn about the latest PubMLST developments. https://t.co/SIdugd8zpV #IPNC2018 @MaidenLab @OdileHarrison @HB_Bratcher
Couldn't agree more! Looking forward to better representation of LMIC scientists during oral sessions at subsequent IPNCs! #IPNC2018
Attending #neisseria conference #ipnc2018 in Asilomar. 63 talks from North America, Europe & Australia chosen from ~320 participants. No talks by #LMICs participants. Where on the globe is the highest burden of #meningitis & #STI one might wonder.

Neil McAlasdair found substantially more recombination from N. gono into N. meningitidis than vice versa - interesting implications for evolution and management? #IPNC2018
#ipnc2018 @OdileHarrison showing the power of cgMLST in analysing gonococcal populations & diversity. cgMLST scheme available at https://t.co/TB8QUIfg8l
Ladhani on UK programme to prevent MenW (cjACWY in teens) Overall annual number of cases went down this year for first time since 2009. Suggests programme now working across the population by indirect effects. Bexsero may also be impacting on cases in young children #IPNC2018
#ipnc2018 @mustaphamun discussing microevolution in meningococci: transmission intense within schools.
Jenny presenting UKMenCar4 data at #IPNC2018 - showing the important relationships between meningococcal carriage and disease
J MacLennan presents UK MenCar4 data showing reduction in mening carriage due to reduced risky behaviour in adolescents #IPNC2018
Jenny McClennan. Overall UK mening carriage rates 2014/15 about half those seen 15 years earlier - disease rates have also fallen including B which not covered by vaccination until recently. Hyperinvasive ST11 was C and is now W. #IPNC2018
H Marshall shows no effect of 4CMenB on carriage rates of mening in Australia cluster rct. Largest study to date. Baseline low carriage rates 4-5% #IPNC2018
Helen Marshall on “Be Part of It” cluster randomised study of Bexosero on Mening carriage in South Australia. adjusted odds ratio all Nm genogroups 0.84 p value 0.09 i.e. no effect shown. My question is: did the vaccine reduce high density carriage? #IPNC2018
Looking forward to the Bayliss group presentation at #ipnc2018. Changes in the meningococcal phasome could be influencing the switch from a carriage to an invasive state!
