An important application of generative A.I. is facilitating discovery to override antimicrobial resistance with newly designed antibiotics, as demonstrated here for in vivo effectiveness vs S. aureus and N. gonorrhoeae @MIT @broadinstitute @wyssinstitute @MITdeptofBE cell.com/cell/fulltext/S0092…

Besök på Karolinska Institutet i Stockholm där Associate Professor Edmund Loh och Dr. Chris Hadjineophytou berättade om det viktiga forskningsarbetet de håller på med gällande meningokockinfektion (Neisseria meningitidis). #DefeatMeningitis #WorldMeningitisDay #meningokockfonden

Small RNAs and their mighty roles in plasmid replication rdcu.be/dlYUM In this Journal Club, Edmund Loh explores the pioneering work of Kurt Nordström and colleagues, revealing the importance of a small RNA in plasmid replication and its mechanism of action. @LabLoh

#Gonorrhea is becoming harder to treat. It’s only a matter of time until it becomes resistant to the last available cure. Learn more for #USAAW22: cdc.gov/std/gonorrhea/arg/pu…

If you use the Meningococcal Deduced Vaccine Antigen Reactivity (MenDeVAR) Index to test for Bexsero or Trumenba vaccine coverage of meningococcal isolates, note that this is now accessible via the PubMLST API, facilitating its use in analysis pipelines. pubmlst.org/organisms/neisse….

New Twitter handle☝🏼! Thanks @BHN_Lab and @LabLoh for inviting me to the @karolinskainst Infection Biology  retreat.  It made me happy to see old friends and meet new ones.  Giving a talk in a yukata was definitely a first! 😄

The new microbiology : don’t miss it ! meetings.embo.org/event/22-n…
2021 var ett år med fortsatt Covid-19 pandemi vilket kan ses i antal meningokock fall under det året. Totalt var det 10 registrerade fall under hela året med flest fall under vintermånaderna. Andelen fall per åldersgrupp hade igen en övervikt bland barn, ungdomar och unga vuxna

The Wallenberg Foundations supports #Ukrainian researchers Research centers with support from the Foundations can nominate researchers who fits in to the centers #research programs for a one-year employment. The Foundations fund this with SEK 1 million for each researcher #KAW100
Vi har tagit fram informationsmaterial om meningokocker i form av små visitkort med symptomen, en A5 broschyr och A3 affisch med information samt pennor som kan beställas kostnadsfritt via vår webbshop. #defeatmeningitis Meningokockfonden.se

Forskare vid @karolinskainst har upptäckt en mekanism som bakterier som orsakar #hjärnhinneinflammation kan använda för att undgå vårt #immunsystem #Forskning med stöd av Knut och Alice Wallenbergs Stiftelse #KAW100 @LabLoh #svmed #medicin bit.ly/3aNv9Sn

KI researchers @LabLoh et al have discovered a mechanism through which the main #meningitis-causing bacteria can evade our immune system by sensing body temperatures. Study out in @PLOSPathogens. bit.ly/32XZv0v

This groundbreaking research helps to shed light on why certain bacteria can lead to deadly meningitis in some people, whilst being harmless to others. Fantastic work from @LabLoh and the team, bringing us closer a world free from meningitis 👊💜
A good start to 2021😇. Our work showing how Neisseria meningitidis survives in the blood is out now! We also show that this variant is currently on the rise among invasive Neisseria cases! @JensKarlsson11 @MTC_KI @karolinskainst @Wstiftelserna @M_R_F tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.…
