The @yorkmuseumstrust.bsky.social's Hospitium was such a lovely location for the @biochemsoc.bsky.social #BioPhyChrom2025 conference dinner. Gorgeous gardens, fabulous food & captivating conversations

Thank you to the organisers for creating a great program & friendly interdisciplinary environment

Excellent day 2 at #BioPhyChrom2025 some great talks and discussions! So glad to present some of the work we’ve just started and get some excellent feedback 🧬And… I SAW LONGBOI @biochemsoc.bsky.social

Already getting excited for this one! Abstract deadline submission is 11th November 2025 so be sure to submit before then #microsky #microbiosocchampion

🚨🚨New paper out in @natcomms.nature.com!!

Come for the first large-scale analysis of plasmid copy number across species,
stay for one of the most intriguing results of my lab: universal scaling laws in plasmid biology! 📈🧬

Join the Careers session now in Hall 4 to discuss career prospects outside of academia for microbiologists. It begins at 10:00 BST. For the full programme visit:

Speakers will include scientists from @microbesng.bsky.social @vidiia.bsky.social and @novogene-europe.bsky.social amongst others #MicroBio25

Excited to be co-chairing my first ever session at #MicroBio25 with @rebeccamchugh.bsky.social tomorrow. Come and listen to the amazing panel of speakers who’ll be talking about their careers and transitioning out of academia - Hall 4, Thurs AM @microbiologysociety.org

Our #microbio25 session ‘Beyond the Lab’ has started in Hall 3b, come join us Prof Nic Holden, Dr Monica Gostic and me to hear what other opportunities there are for microbiologist🧫🦠🍄🧪🧬💊💻
First up Dr Izzy Webb with an update from DSIT

Interested in plague? Interested in gene expression and essentiality? 🧬
Come see my poster at #MicroBio25 (A201) where we’re using CRISPRi to discover new viable therapeutic targets against Yersinia pestis @microbiologysociety.org

@microbesng.bsky.social 🧬🧬

What an incredible month at @newcastleuni.bsky.social! I've loved working in the Howard Lab, getting to grips with cell-free protein synthesis and DOE. A huge thank you to everyone in the Devonshire Building for being so welcoming and friendly. Next stop: MicroSoc! #MicroBio25

UKHSA’s interesting new list of 20 priority pathogens that could pose greatest risk to public health in UK published today

Most are viruses...

Includes 5 bacterial families:
Anthrax, Gonorrhoea, Staphylococcus, Group A&B Streptococcus & Enterobacteriaceae…
