"We have a choice: to be the generation that takes definitive action against AMR, safeguarding our health and the health of future generations. Or to be the generation that squandered the opportunity before us, potentially jeopardising modern medicine as we know it." www.lse.ac.uk/News/Latest-...
LSE Health will work with WHO Europe on the world's first AMR Accountability Index for Europe and Central Asia.
Last night I was installed as a Professor of Molecular Microbiology at Nanyang Technological University. It was a fun evening of fabulous food and entertainment to celebrate newly appointed and promoted Professors. 2 months since I joined SCELSE and SBS at NTU and feel very welcome!
I am really excited to announce that a new paper that I am a part of is now live. Scientists’ Call to Action: Microbes, Planetary Health, and the Sustainable Development Goals (Crowther et al., 2024) is available at the link below. 🧪🧫🦠🔬 🧵 (will be broken up by teaching) www.cell.com/cell/fulltex...
Microbes are essential to life on Earth and will be core, with the advent of exciting new technologies, to our ability to achieve the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals for a sustainable fut...
Perhaps requiring the scientific brainpower of the world to exhaust themselves on the ever-more limited funding and publication treadmills may not be the best use of this resource to solve the grand challenges facing humanity. Seems designed to keep us distracted and not challenging the systems 🤔
Out now in Nature Microbiology - a paper that describes a fundamentally different way bacteria sense during chemotaxis. #NatMicro#microsky#microbiologywww.nature.com/articles/s41...
Microfluidic experiments reveal that surface-attached Pseudomonas aeruginosa cells directly sense differences in chemical concentration across the length of their cell bodies to guide pili-based chemo...
I’m sad to be missing #Pseudomonas#science from the meeting on here. Would rather not go to the other place to see what’s happening….. 🧪🧫
Brazil nuts, almost unique in our food supply, are not cultivated, but are collected in the wilds of the Amazon forest. Communities of indigenous nut harvesters maintain intact forests necessary for the trees. When you eat Brazil nuts, you are contributing to the conservation of Amazon forests. 🌏
We've got an exciting #postdoc@halllab.bsky.social#microbiomeedzz.fa.em3.oraclecloud.com/hcmUI/Candid...
This innovative project is conducted in collaboration with Dr. Peter Chivers’ lab at Durham University, which will perform the molecular characterisation of a newly identified and novel iron uptake sy...
This week I started my next adventure as PI in the Biofilm Biology cluster at SCELSE! I’m thrilled to be here and excited for new opportunities and collaborations!
