I was tinkering with @JC_pathogenomic and I was wondered - Which journals cater to microbial genomics?

I selected a list of people in the field, and then looked in which journals their work features.

Here are the top 50 journals where 'we' publish:

Large-scale comparative genomics to refine the organization of the global Salmonella enterica population structure | Microbiology Society https://t.co/tImZN8LGbJ

[IMPACTT Microbiome @IMPACTT_Canada]

New here? Welcome! We are a Canadian microbiome research core focused on supporting the research community.

We run #workshops, #webinars, a #mentorship program, & an annual #symposium dedicated to furthering #microbiome #research.

I drew this diagram 10 years ago to show the need for public health to engage with external expert groups. Are we there yet?

Many healthcare organizations and health authorities struggle to share data effectively with biomedical researchers.

If we want to battle pandemics, this needs to change, argue Soyean Kim, @wlhsiao, and Nancy Olewiler of @SFUSPP. #CdnPoli

How we came to use agar for bacterial plates 😱

Our new paper just dropped where we tracked transmission of #Klebsiella strains and plasmids within and between grey-headed flying fox colonies.

Tasty networks and phylogenies inside.

100,000 SARS-CoV-2 Genomes from 52 countries in Africa publicly shared on @GISAID. An amazing milestone showing the dedication of 100s of scientists across the continent to pathogen genomic surveillance and public health during a pandemic.
