Hey, #UTIsky & #IDsky, don't forget about our #UTIhour NEXT WEDNESDAY, 10/14 at 12PM EDT! Topic: Current Perspectives on UTIs in Veterinary Science: Implications for Human Health. Watch live: UTIGA.org/upcoming Watch recording after: UTIGA.org/past Speakers: 🧵👇

Looking for some stability amidst the current academic turmoil? My department is hiring! Emphasis on Immunology for this tenure-track NY state supported position in the Dept of Micro and Immuno. Come join the Jacobs School of Medicine, University at Buffalo. www.ubjobs.buffalo.edu/postings/58737

My first #IDSky post will be a shameless promotion of our new UTI WikiGuideline! jamanetwork.com/journals/jam... Of 37 questions, only 6 had enough data to fully meet criteria for a clear recommendation!

An important read, especially for Internstional Women in Science Day.

If you're presenting #UTI research at a conference, #UTIGA wants to help with the travel costs! Applications for our travel awards are open until mid April, but that doesn't mean you can't apply today ;)

With all the uncertainty from the new changes proposed at the NIH, #UTIGA leadership wants to affirm our steadfast commitment to our mission to improve care of those that suffer from UTIs, promote the next generation of biomedical professionals and advocate for our patients. We are in this together.

My editorial simultaneously published in all of @asm.org's journals addresses the ongoing effort by the administration to halt efforts to diversify science. It should be obvious from ASM Journals' efforts over the years, but we aren't fans journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/...

Deka Namrata is earning her PhD in @chelsamicro.bsky.social's lab, and she's already an #AHA (predoctoral) fellow ❤️ She's presenting her work on #proteusmirabilis in #catheter #UTI and #bacteremia right now during #UTIhour. Hop on the Zoom, and we will have recordings on our site #UTIsky #IDsky

“A group of researchers and students at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health is gathered today for a data preservation marathon, scraping and downloading data related to health equity from U.S. government agency websites before they disappear.”

The Internet Archive has to date downloaded 500 terabytes of US government websites, which it crawls at the end of every presidential term. The whole archive is fully searchable. This effort's housed by a donation-funded nonprofit, not a branch of the US government. blog.archive.org/2024/05/08/e...

Save the date! UTI Hour is one month from today, Feb 14th at 10 am EST. Join us to learn more about urobacteremia and urosepsis from @afloresmireles.bsky.social Dr. Ritwij Kulkarni, and Namrata Deka. Hosted by Dr. Allyson Shea.
