Our very first #SpeakerSpotlight is @MarkSchembri7, of @UQ_SCMB 🐨🇦🇺🦘

Dr. Schembri is a #UTI expert with over 20 years of experience. He's coming up from all the way down under for his talk "Antibiotic resistant uropathogenic E. coli - it's all about the clones"

[UTI Global Alliance @GlobalUti]

Our next keynote #SpeakerSpotlight mixes things up a little and shifts from the bench ���to the bedside 🏥. We love variety!

@AnnStapletonMD of @UWDeptMedicine 🇺🇲🦅has over 30 years of #UTI expertise under her belt, clinical and research. (1/2)

[UTI Global Alliance @GlobalUti]

Last but not least, our #SpeakerSpotlight doesn't just close out day 1 of the #UTIConference, he's getting a #UTIGA Lifetime Achievement Award 🥳

Dr. @harry_mobley of @UMICHmedicine is one of the GOATs of #UTI research 🐐 with over >40 years of experience (1/3)

[UTI Global Alliance @GlobalUti]

#SpeakerSpotlight meet our 3rd keynote speaker, Dr. @Chels_A_micro (Chelsea Armbruster) of @Jacobs_Med_UB 🦅🇺🇲

Dr. Armbruster's lab studies how bacteria interact with their hosts 🦠🤝🧍‍♀️ and with each other 🦠 🤝🦠🤝🦠 to promote diseases like #catheter-associated #UTI. (1/2)

We combined TraDIS and metabolomics to identify new genes required for growth in human urine by multidrug-resistant Escherichia coli ST131 in a study led by @pmduy in collaboration with @KapplerUlrike and @MetaboHorst https://t.co/WsSKcALC6H

[Ulrike Kappler @KapplerUlrike]

Great collaboration with @LabSchembri, @pmduy and @MetaboHorst . Very pleased to have been part of this study.

#UQ researchers have discovered that a mutation allows some E. coli bacteria to invade the body while others are harmless, a finding that could help fight antibiotic resistance.

I'm excited to share that our research from
@TheSweetGroup, on cystic fibrosis and how the heavy metal zinc could be beneficial in combating infections associated with CF, has finally been published in PNAS. https://t.co/JP9zhM4OZk
Many thanks to everyone involved in this project

[Translational Research Institute Australia @TRI_info]

Congratulations, TRI-based A/Prof @sumaira_hasnain from @MaterResearch for your collaborative work with @UQ_News @IMBatUQ researchers on tackling antibiotic resistant bacteria - with potential to address the threat of UTIs, meningitis and sepsis. https://t.co/hzkwOKSMp3

[UQ News @UQ_News]

#UQ researchers have identified that an immune response fault leaves people living with #cysticfibrosis at risk of recurring infections.

The @IMBatUQ team says a zinc transport protein could be the answer to reducing illness.

[UQ News @UQ_News]

Researchers at @IMBatUQ have discovered why some E. coli bacteria cause severe disease and others don't.

@LabSchembri says a mutation helps affected bacteria spread in the body, a finding that could help fight antibiotic resistance.
