Really interesting interactive audience & speaker panel discussion chaired by BactiVac Advisory Board member Peter Borriello. Lots interesting points being raised about the challenges faced in developing bacterial vaccines for veterinary infections in both high income and low income country settings. #BactiVacEvents #IVIS2025 #AMR @wellcometrust @The_MRC @UKgovGHS @UoBinfectionsch

The flu vaccine helps protect against influenza, a common and highly infectious virus. It’s free for eligible individuals or available privately at most pharmacies. Get vaccinated early to ensure you’re protected sooner. Learn more on Vaccine Knowledge: vaccineknowledge.ox.ac.uk/fl…

Extremely happy to see this paper out! Building from our previous work (see doi.org/10.1016/j.vaccine.20…), we have looked into exploiting outer membrane vesicles from Neisseria cinerea to express multiple meningococcal antigens. frontiersin.org/journals/imm…

Glad to see our lipase/FAME story out @CommsBio after constructive peer-review overseen by an excellent editor @TobiasGoris. Many thanks @DoroKretschmer @AndreasPeschel1 @CoE_CMFI and everyone involved. Take a look: nature.com/articles/s42003-0…
Happy to share the first preprint of my group @CoE_CMFI. We probed how bacteria hijack cholesterol to detoxify antimicrobial fatty acids. The answer for Staph aureus is the lipase Lip2. Grateful to students and collaborators who joined us on this ride biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Tragically, as cases of whooping cough surge in England, @UKHSA reports that five precious infants have lost their lives to this disease. @UKHSA figures show that 2,793 cases were reported by the end of March. That compares to 858 cases for the whole of 2023. Get the facts👇🏽
