What better way to start off a school year than spending a fantastic week in Copenhagen, learning about my favourite genus of bacteria! Thank you to the organizing committee for this fantastic conference #pseudomonas2024

[Lori L. Burrows @Dr_Lori_Burrows]

Congratulations to my AWESOME trainees @veronicantran and Ikram Qaderi for each being awarded 3-year, highly competitive @NSERC_CRSNG PGS-D salary awards for their PhD studies of #Pseudomonas type IV pilus #T4P-specific #bacteriophages!! 🥳🙌🥂🎉⭐️⭐️@BBS_McMasterU @McMasterIIDR

[Veronica Tran @veronicantran]

It was an honour to be the student co-chair (with
@rabiafatima_ ) for this event! I love that I get to complete my graduate work surrounded by so many amazing scientists. Thank you IIDR for another successful Trainee Day!

[McMaster IIDR @McMasterIIDR]

We’re live from IIDR Trainee Day 2023, excited to hear about the amazing infectious disease research being carried out by the students and trainees working in IIDR labs.

I had the unique opportunity to write a piece for @macleans on the uses and limitations of AI in drug discovery. A lot of folks much more clever than me also wrote remarkably thought-provoking articles about the modern human experience with AI.

Thank you @CSM2023_Halifax for the opportunity to present my work and thank you for the award! I had a blast at the conference and learned so much! 🧫🔬

[Lori L. Burrows @Dr_Lori_Burrows]

Big congratulations to PhD candidate ⁦⁦@veronicantran⁩ for winning a Beveridge poster award ⁦@CSM2023_Halifax⁩ for her work on mechanisms of resistance to T4P-specific #phages 🏆🎉!

[Haley Zubyk @HaleyZubyk]

Congratulations @amna_ab06 and @veronicantran for winning the Terry Beveridge Poster Awards at @CSM2023_Halifax!!!!! @BBS_McMasterU represent!

[Lori L. Burrows @Dr_Lori_Burrows]

Poster power @CSM2023⁦@CSM2023_Halifax⁩ ! If you missed these, or the one on FimX-marks-the-spot that Nathan Roberge presented on Monday, track these awesome students down and ask them about their cool science 🧫 🔬⁦@veronicantran⁩ ⁦@DerekCKChan1⁩ #Pseudomonas

[Veronica Tran @veronicantran]

Excited to be in Halifax this week for #CSM2023 ! Looking forward to learning about all the cool microbiology research taking place in Canada 🔬

It’s a ‘Trojan horse’ approach to tricking bacteria into letting antibiotics in," says @Dr_Lori_Burrows, a professor @BBS_McMasterU @McMasterU. #HamOnt https://t.co/YyN164cu0k

@adam_rudner @Dr_Lori_Burrows Thank you Dr. Rudner!

[Lori L. Burrows @Dr_Lori_Burrows]

Not just a great talk - a winner!! Congratulations @veronicantran for receiving Best Talk award at the #PhageCanada2022 symposium - very proud of my talented trainees 🎉🔥

[Veronica Tran @veronicantran]

Thank you @PhageCanada for hosting this awesome conference! I really enjoyed learning all about phage research taking place at home! 🇨🇦

[Lori L. Burrows @Dr_Lori_Burrows]

Loving #PhageCanada 2022 edition! Congratulations to @veronicantran for her great talk today on the repertoire and reversibility of #T4P mutations that arise when #pseudomonas is challenged with #phages that use pili as receptors. We let Mother Nature show us what's possible!

[Haley Zubyk @HaleyZubyk]

Feeling so thankful to be a part of this amazing institute and university!! I finally met so many graduate students and UGs that started working with us during COVID. It’s great to have a sense of community again 🥳

[Veronica Tran @veronicantran]

Thank you @csm_scm2022 for hosting the Burrows lab these past few days! It was so nice to come to University of Guelph, home of our PI @Dr_Lori_Burrows for many years!

[Veronica Tran @veronicantran]

Thank you CSM for the opportunity to share my research! 🔬

[CSM_SCM2022 @csm_scm2022]

Starting off with @veronicantran from the @Dr_Lori_Burrows lab in the MGCM Symposium! #CSM_SCM2022

[Veronica Tran @veronicantran]

Just the first of many awesome presenters from our lab! Awesome job @DerekCKChan1 🎉

[CSM_SCM2022 @csm_scm2022]

@DerekCKChan1 brings to you “Ironing out the mechanisms of antimicrobial uptake by TonB transporters” from the Microbial Transporters session @Dr_Lori_Burrows #CSM_SCM2022

[Veronica Tran @veronicantran]

Had such a blast helping out with one of my favourite WISE events, today! I even got a protein biochemistry refresher from @structureSara 😅🔬

[McMasterWISE @McMasterWISE]

A fantastic morning here at GenSTEM 2022 featuring workshops with @structureSara and @ltsmcmaster ! More to come in the afternoon! 👩🏻‍🔬🥼🔬👨🏽‍🔬

[Veronica Tran @veronicantran]

Finally got to walk across the stage to celebrate completing my Hon. BSc (better late than never!)
Couldn’t have done this without the fantastic support network I have 💕
