Extremely happy to have participated in the first ever Klebsiella Epidemiology and Biology Symposium #KLEBS2024 organized at home @institutpasteur by @sylvainbrisse and @chcrestani. Can't wait for the next one to discuss more about this fascinating bacteria with so many friends!

Integrating different types of data across sectors can be challenging. The Canadian One Health AMR genomics contextual data standard, built in partnership with the Can gov't, is readily adapted for international use and supports public data sharing. #GRDI osf.io/preprints/osf/xbf4t

Happy to share the work ‘Global scenario of the RmtE pan-aminoglycoside-resistance mechanism: emergence of the rmtE4 gene in South America associated with a hospital-related IncL plasmid’ doi.org/10.1099/mgen.0.00094… Thanks to @AruUcm, @TheCGPS and @iibcaudo for making it possible!
New paper out! World-wide dissemination of rmtE conferring pan-resistance to aminoglycosides. We identify novel rmtE4 in a hospital related IncL plasmid in South America. Free article here 👇👇👇 microbiologyresearch.org/con… #MGen @MicrobioSoc @JFDelgado_Blas @daanensen @AbadiaEn

In cultures of arrogance, people get rewarded for expressing certainty and conviction. The most confident speaker claims the most status. In cultures of humility, people are applauded for admitting ignorance and asking questions. The most complex thinker earns the most respect.

New Black Mirror episode out now (Science Edition). This is very disturbing...
In the last two weeks I have been through the most harrowing peer-review process in my life. A story and a lesson for all.... I reviewed a paper for a large Q1 Microbiology journal. Huge problems with paper. Detailed confidential review submitted to authors. 1/
A must read at the end of Pride month🏳️‍🌈: "LGBTQ+ identity is just one way of classifying social oppression, and it may intersect with other forms such as sexism, racism, ableism and classism." I wonder what initiatives exist across your research institutions to address this.

Quick read on planning your postdoc. The question is: how to do career planing with current mobility restrictions and uncertainty?
"Postdocs make up a crucial component of the scientific workforce. But the application process can be mysterious...In this column, we try to demystify the application process for prospective postdocs." sciencemag.org/careers/2020/…

The cavalry is coming. Scientists are developing vaccines, trialling treatments, tracking and tracing the spread of #covid19 with genome sequencing and phylogenetics. You can help them. Stay inside, slow the spread. Buy them time.
