New paper alert! Toxins can skew the results of competition assays, fascinating short communication from @Prokaryota and @willpjsmith. @MicrobioSoc https://t.co/PxPRn6lsaX
Go Team! Deeply honoured that the MERMan lab reps won an @OfficialUoM "FMBH heroes" award - thanks @FBMH_UoM and the MERMan PIs for nominating us
❤️❤️❤️
The Oxford U. Foster and Slack labs are hiring! A chance to work in bleeding edge microbiome science with some really great mentors https://t.co/aCmSpLxdEy
Thrilled to have our recent T6SS resistance work featured in this commentary by @ShikumaLab. Thanks for the shoutout Nick!

What amount of eye disease research would have discovered the laser? How much virology would have discovered lipid nanobody mRNA delivery? How many disease genes would you need to find before you discovered CRISPR?
Sometimes the hardest problems need discoveries in other fields
Chuffed to have been featured in the local news! Thanks @MENnewsdesk for covering our T6SS toxins story🗞️

(1/6) Really jazzed to have this out - my first @wellcometrust fellowship paper! https://t.co/uhA1c5Qv0M
Can bacteria evolve resistance to competitors' T6SS weaponry? We find that the answer depends on **how many toxins** competitors are using. A thread:
