Presented my PhD work at #BSP2026 (Glasgow) on LAP-MALDI based molecular biotyping of Fasciola hepatica for drug resistance profiling. Also had the privilege to co-chair the Veterinary Parasitology session. Great discussions & connections! #Parasitology #Proteomics #LAP_MALDI

Parasite of the Month

Quiz of the Week: Decode the Parasite 🧩 This case hides its biggest clue in what the patient ate, not where they traveled. Which parasite fits this pattern? Share your reasoning in the comments. #Parasitology #InfectiousDiseases

Throwback Thursday: In 1971, Prof. Florence Gwendolen Rees made history in parasitology. Her legacy lives on, Aberystwyth University renamed the former IBERS building the Gwendolen Rees Building in 2023, honouring her impact on science, education, and women in STEM. #TBT #WomenInScience

Parasites don’t wait for funding cycles, they adapt, and evolve. The real question is whether our science, systems, and commitment can evolve fast enough to keep up with parasites. Read “The Parasites Are Evolving: Are We? Reflections from 2025“ by Olugbenga on Medium: medium.com/@babatundesa...

Dog fouling can have dangerous repercussions for both humans and animals Our Reader in Parasitology, @russmorphew.bsky.social spoke to @bbccymruwales.bsky.social about results from a recent study on the pathogens found in samples Read more 👇 #AberUni #Parasitology #LifeSciences

Was great to cover this piece for @bbccymruwales.bsky.social going over our work on canine faecal screening for helminth infections #Worms 🪱 Always pick up after your dogs for the benefit of human and animal health.

Thank you @russmorphew.bsky.social and @ukbspr.bsky.social #BSPR2025

Closing up #BSPR2025 we sre privileged to have Vadim @vadim-demichev.bsky.social talking to us about jow quantitative proteomics really is.

Poster 37, #BSPR2025. An open-source LIMS based on SDRF by @naotgnuhp.bsky.social. Full LIMS 🤩. An Android app allow you to do even term search and selection. Really nice.

Andy Frey from the @mtrost.bsky.social lab now talks to us about ubiquitylation in the phagosomes of macrophages with details on the technical challanges. #BSPR2025

Rosamund Clifford from the @rdunwin.bsky.social lab now presents her work on "Measuring the Mouse Complementome" focussing on complement proteins. #BSPR2025

Next session kicks off with Adam Butterworth with lessons learned from genomic studies of high-throughput proteomic assays #BSPR2025

Had a great time presenting on phagosomes and ubiquitylation at #BSPR2025 @mtrost.bsky.social @ukbspr.bsky.social , not much time left but if you wany to I hope we can chat about it over coffee!

Thank you @russmorphew.bsky.social ...

Honoured to be at #BSPR2025! Come check out Poster 30 to explore my research on triclabendazole-resistant and -susceptible isolates of Fasciola hepatica (liver fluke). Let’s talk #proteomics and drug resistance! #TeamFluke #LiverFluke #Parasitology #BSPR2025

Parasite of the Month: May 2025 Meet Cymothoa exigua, the tongue-eating louse... Full details in the photocard! #ParasiteOfTheMonth #Parasitology #Ectoparasite #GlobalHealth #MarineBiology #Science

🐛🔬Some of our parasitology team attended the inaugural Joint Parasitology Meeting in Würzburg, hosted by @bspparasitology.bsky.social & our colleagues in Germany and Switzerland 👏Fantastic talks from Jo Forde-Thomas & Chris Smith, plus a great poster by Yi-Hsuan Lee showcasing our latest research.

📣📣 first update on our BSPR2025 meeting takingnplace 7-9th july. We reveal our amazing plenary speakers. @slavov-n.bsky.social will talk about single cell proteomics @vadim-demichev.bsky.social talking about DIA-NN @epetsalaki.bsky.social on computational biology focus

2ND NEW PAPER ALERT: A great week for Rumen fluke biology! Detoxome capacity in C. daubneyi led by Nathan Allen. As always another great collaboration with Mark Robinson @qubelfastofficial.bsky.social #TeamFluke @aberdlsagb.bsky.social #BCHCAber

NEW PHD ALERT: Protein-protein interactions for control of the ruminant parasite the liver fluke. FoodBioSystems funded at @aberdlsagb.bsky.social with me, Karl Hoffmann, Aaron Maule @qubelfastofficial.bsky.social & Kim Kenobi @aberuni.bsky.social Maths research.reading.ac.uk/foodbiosyste...

Two potential PhD opportunities coming up that I have the pleasure of being involved with...both as part of the UKRI OneZoo Doctoral Training Centre.
