Working on innate immunity & host-pathogen interactions. Finding new ways to treat infections by antibiotic resistant bacteria. All views are my own.
Delighted to share our last Kleb work. From developing a platform to asses in real time bugs effect on vessels to nail down the role of the T6SS and the CPS including in vvo work. Superb collaboration and hard work of PhD student @safimicro.bsky.social

Hall LabExcited to share our @cp-cellhostmicrobe.bsky.social led by Magda showing how Bif has co-evolved with different animal hosts 🐒🐭🐷🐦 Key takeaways: 🔹 Host ancestry + diet shape Bif evolution 🔹 Mammals enriched for carb-busting enzymes 🔹 Untapped diversity in non-human hosts = new probiotic potential
Good opportunity here to work with a super talented new PI.
Joe Wanford🚨 Job alert 🚨 I’m recruiting two postdoctoral research associates to join my lab at KCL to study how #Klebsiella pneumoniae regulates virulence factor expression during infection! #klebclub Mol Micro: tinyurl.com/mtrwtx5e Infection: tinyurl.com/2s3u8ca2 Deadline: 21st September.
www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1.... New pre-print of the lab in which we dive deep into Klebsiella-macrophage interface. High structural resolution of the lipid A produced by Klebsiella within the Klebsiella containing vacuole governed bt TLR4 signaling. Superb job led PhD student Toby Bartholomew
