So greatful for to@Vetenskapsradet suppirt for 3 yr project on tackling multi-drug resistant infections! Very proud to have gotten this support alongside @gem__atkinson and @hauryliuk, congratulations 🥂🥳
Interested in joining as Postdoc? Reach out 🤓
Grateful to the Swedish Research Council (Vetenskapsrådet) for funding a 3 year project on antibiotic resistance & phages. If you're looking for a post-doc position in 2025, have a phagey background, & are interested in a wet/dry research combo then look out for an ad coming soon
Excited to be speaking in this meeting. Looking forward to it!
We have a great list of already confirmed speakers and keynotes! Deadline for abstracts: December 15!

Exciting LoVis4u update! 😍
New version of LoVis4u is released! 💛
Now it supports visualisation of non-coding features like tRNAs and includes a new module for hmmscan searches against DefenseFinder, PADLOC, VFDB, AMRFinder, dbAPIS (anti-defences), or your own databases.

See our preprint on systematic hotspot annotation! In addition to hotspot analysis, we provide precomputed iLund4u databases and two search modes: find if your query proteins are encoded in hotspots or map hotspots to a single phage/plasmid sequence. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
