Super jealous of all my @warwickAMRlab friends in Paris at the amazing Great Wall Symosium over the next few days. Was so much fun in Portugal 2 years ago.

New paper from the @Nick_Waterfield lab which includes work from our very own Katie Smart (Dowson group) who worked in the Waterfield lab as part of her @MRCDTP_IBR mini-project! Great work! elifesciences.org/articles/4…

The Photorhabdus asymbiotica virulence cassettes deliver protein effectors directly into target...

The insect pathogenic bacterium Photorhabdus has evolved astonishing nano-scale analogues of hypodermic syringes that it uses to inject toxins into host cells.

#Bioinformatics help please! Has anyone ever had an issue with pilon polishing in unicycler where it stops after several rounds as it can't fix local continuity breaks?
