‼️ Excited to announce 1st session of #KlebClub2026! We kick things off with a session on pathogenesis, with *Jay Vornhagen* as keynote speaker, alongside 2 short talks selected from submitted abstracts - Sylvie MIQUEL & @microbiosaroj.bsky.social 🗓 Thursday 9 🕘 9:00 -10:30 AM (EDT) (1/2)

What happens when Klebsiella's capsule locus is swapped? Unexpectedly little in terms of cell growth. Yet, it does change the bacterium's environment and interactions with it: evolution by seamless plug-and-play capsule swap. Led by @julielebris.bsky.social @olayarendueles.bsky.social

🚨 Big news! 🚨 Here the FINAL 2026 Speaker list for our seminar series!! ✨ Get ready for: • Pathogenesis session • Pediatrics #Klebsiella • Translational Microbiology • #KlebClub Community Flash talks! Starting April 9th - 9 AM EST! #KlebClub2026 #microsky #UTIsky #phagesky Registration is FREE

Kind reminder: There is one week left to apply for a talk for the Klebsiella Seminar Series! Send your abstract by February 16th! & Register for free in the link below: forms.gle/LhJu11WQN6Yy... #MicroSky #UTISky #AMRSky #Agenda

We’re excited to kick off a new season of the Klebsiella Seminar Series, held on Thursdays in April 🧫🧬! We have 3 sessions on pathogenesis, pediatric Klebsiella & translational approaches. We will also have an open session. Registration is mandatory & FREE in this link forms.gle/LhJu11WQN6Yy... 🔁

As well as the development of Bactabolize co-led by Stephen Watts, which was used to construct the genome-specific metabolic models. github.com/kelwyres/Bac... elifesciences.org/articles/87406

#AMR #Klebsiella cause >100,000 neonatal deaths globally each year. Our new preprint shows more than half of #Klebsiella pneumoniae neonatal sepsis cases in African and South Asian are nosocomial, acquired through transmission in neonatal units. #WAAW doi.org/10.1101/2025...

Absolutely stoked to have this published in @plosbiology.org We looked at the metabolism of #Klebsiella pneumoniae 🦠🧫. We not only demonstrated lineage-specific #metabolism, but that lineages can cross-feed and support each other. journals.plos.org/plosbiology/... #MicroSky #microbiology 🧬 🧪 💊

Ever wondered how much bacterial parasites influence evolutionary outcomes of their host? ➡️ We co-evolved two bacterial strains in conditions in which the costs and benefits of prophage carriage varied Here is what we found.

Session with four excellent lightning talks starts in 15 min! Link is in the email to all registered attendees. See you soon!

We are back and excited for a great line up of speakers! Klebsiella Seminar Series 2025 starts next week 🙌 Join us on Thursday, April 3rd for Session 1 with talks focused on Pathogenesis. Registration is free at sites.google.com/view/klebclu.... Contact the organizers with any questions! #KlebClub

It's that time of year! Registration and abstract submission for the 6th Klebsiella Seminar Series is now open. Participation is free and abstracts are due by February 16th. See the link below for details, and reach out to the organizers with any questions: forms.gle/gxbvaC6FjzuS... #KlebClub

Thanks @sylvainbrisse.bsky.social for involving me in KlebNET-GSP as project manager 3y ago, it was a very enriching experience! Thanks to all the attendees of #KLEBS2024 for making this a great success, it was our best reward! And thanks to the @gatesfoundation.bsky.social for making it possible!

Reposting our preprint presented at #KLEBS2024 where we sailed the seven seas of the #Klebsiella pneumoniae species complex 🏴☠️and charted an atlas of our travels. We present a population metabolism study of 7835 genomes + metabolic models, in vitro validation and co-cultures. doi.org/10.1101/2024...

A reminder for new folks. BlueSky does not have an algorithm to raise posts of interest. It is incumbent upon you to do so via reposting. Liking things only provides feedback to the poster but does not promote the post. The signal to noise ratio is taking a brief beating, so great to help curate.

#KLEBS2024: (free) online registrations are still open for the Klebsiella Epidemiology and Biology Symposium (KLEBS), November 20-22, 2024. Online registration is free to LMIC attendees, and 110/50 Euros for general/student otherwise. Visit klebs-2024.conferences-pasteur.org and register!
