📣💥Thrilled to share this preprint from our PhD student Yao Shi on the identification of a conserved motif in Strep suis cell wall glycan for possible vaccine protection. 👏 to team of dedicated international collaborators immunogenicity.https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2025.06.02.656523v1

💥New preprint and first first author manuscript of PhD student Jasper Mol. Instead of looking at glycan-lectin interactions for single pathogens, we provide a pipeline to explore which gut microbes are recognized by C-type lectins for sampling by local immune cells www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

🔔🔔 🔔 Sound the alarm! Not 1 but 2 PhD positions available in my research group at Amsterdam UMC studying the interaction between S. aureus wall teichoic acids and the host immune system. Multidisciplinary projects with experience in academia and industry. werkenbij.amsterdamumc.org/en/vacatures...

📣 New collaborative work on invasive Strep A epidemiology. A synchronous rise in cases caused by a previously rare emm type 3.93. Genomic analysis identifies a genomic rearrangement in isolates associated to the surge. Added value of long-read seq! Thanks to all! wwwnc.cdc.gov/eid/article/...
