So thankful to the organisers for the opportunity to share our work on capsules and recipients at #ISPB2024
Such an amazing week of plasmid biology! @PlasmidSociety
So proud of Desirel Ng who won one of the top three prizes at the @MonashUni-wide Visualise Your Thesis final for her audio/visual animation of her PhD project. It was a pleasure seeing such creative science communication from all the talented finalists! doi.org/10.26180/25981594.v1
So happy to see our structural and molecular biology collaboration with @DrSheenaMcGowan out in @CommsBio. We show that C. difficile uses an endolysin for toxin secretion, a mechanism which seems to occur in a controlled manner without cell lysis nature.com/articles/s42003-0…

Kunath, Wilmes et al. explore the interaction between the oral and the intestinal microbiota and how they influence each other and the development of different diseases.

Really excited to be co-chairing this brand new special interest group with the incredible @DrJoshRamsay
Did you know the ASM has a new SIG dedicated to mobile genetic elements? These important elements shape microbial evolution and underpin the rise of AMR.
ASM members interested in MGEs of any kind are invited to register their interest in the link below
