Every hour counts in sepsis. Assistant Professor @mrcunitgambia.bsky.social and @lshtm.bsky.social UduakOkomo explains why timely care is key to saving lives. Learn more with @jhenryc.bsky.social on the facts and actions to tackle sepsis. Read more: bit.ly/3XBaTeS

Building local expertise is key to fighting AMR. Our short course trains scientists and healthcare professionals from around the world. Register your interest for 2026👉 bit.ly/4i4pokG

Antimicrobial Resistance Awareness Week starts today. Our research themes show how we tackle AMR from every angle, from biological and clinical sciences to modelling, social science, and more. Learn more: 👉 bit.ly/4i5Uf0v

#Klebsiella infections are a serious & growing #PublicHealth threat For #AntimicrobialAwarenessWeek, @josebengoechea.bsky.social discusses the dangers of bacterial infections, antimicrobial resistance & the global efforts to tackle it. @lshtmamrcentre.bsky.social www.lshtm.ac.uk/newsevents/e...

Contribution of nosocomial transmission to Klebsiella pneumoniae neonatal sepsis in Africa and South Asia: a meta-analysis of infection clusters inferred from pathogen genomics and temporal data https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2025.11.15.25340095v1

The @klebnet.bsky.social team are pleased to share slides from our “Klebsiella pneumoniae Genomic Epidemiology & Antimicrobial Resistance” lecture series! Topics include Kleb diversity, lineages, AMR, hypervirulence, how to use Kaptive & Kleborate for typing, and more! klebnet.org/2025/11/18/k...

I'm super happy to share this preprint on ‘Distribution of capsule and O types in #Klebsiella pneumoniae causing neonatal sepsis in Africa and South Asia: meta-analysis of genome-predicted serotype prevalence and potential vaccine coverage’ doi.org/10.1101/2025...

Honoured + super grateful to give an oral talk on efforts by #PulseNETAfrica to enhance capacity of public health labs across Africa for cholera mgt + a poster describing investigation of a neonatal kleb pneumoniae ST39 outbreak in a rural hospital in the Gambia at #IMMEM XIV in beautiful Porto 🇵🇹

✨Célia Souque just showcased the outcomes of the 12th Microbial Bioinformatics Hackathon at IMMEM XIV. She brilliantly presented the first sneak-peek of PORT – Plasmid Outbreak Reporting Tool! 🧬 Looking forward to continuing this collaboration with PORT! #IMMEM #Hackathon #Plasmids #ESGEM #ESGMAP

I’ve got something exciting to share. After years of working with labs around the world, I’m starting something new! I’ve seen how many labs want to do more with genomics, but the path forward isn’t always clear. The process is complex, and without the right guidance, it’s easy to get stuck.

Check out our tour-de-force study exploring Klebsiella capsules and O types in neonatal sepsis isolates from Asia & Africa. An excellent demonstration of how collaboration is essential to move the field forward & realise the benefits of genomics for public health & clinical micro!

Super talk from @efosternyarko.bsky.social @lshtmamrcentre.bsky.social on nanopore based sequencing of cholera across Africa, with PulseNet Africa partners #ABPHM25 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

We are pleased to launch the KlebNET Genomic Epidemiology Consortium! We aim to build a public metadata repository; systematic risk framework for global genomic surveillance; and genomic epi reviews for high-impact #Klebsiella clones. Join us here: klebnet.org/klebnet-gsp-... #ABPHM25

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!

JOB ALERT! Come work with me at LSHTM to investigate transmission of Klebsiella pneumoniae in neonatal units in Africa using bioinformatics and genomic epi. Great team, Gates funded, £44-50k/yr, 1-year postdoc to start with possibilities to extend. Closing March 26. jobs.lshtm.ac.uk/vacancy.aspx...
