Our latest preprint is out describing amr.watch - a platform for monitoring AMR trends from global genomics data: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... (1/6)

Laura Díaz Sáez explicó las actividades que está realizando el Grupo de Trabajo de Difusión (Daniel López, Juan Hermoso, Rafael Molina, Lara Díaz, Sara Hernando-Amado, Jade Rivera, Alberto Marina, Ana de la Torre y Scienseed). Y participaron miembros de otras Conexiones del @CSIC.

Hoy hemos celebrado la Asamblea Anual de la Conexión Resistencias a Antimicrobianos del @csic.es donde nos hemos reunido para hablar sobre este problema de salud y buscar soluciones. Una conexión liderada por @albertomarina.bsky.social y Ana de la Torre. Síguenos para estar informado!

La otra mesa trató sobre "Adquisición y diseminación de resistencias a los antibióticos: del ecosistema natural al microbioma humano" (Junkal Gramendia, Jaime Villaverde, Pilar Truchado, Carol Ewbank, Francesc Coll, Sara Hernando-Amado, Carles Ubeda).

Happy to share our new AMR resource which has phenotypic AMR (usually MIC data) collected from publications and databases. This is paired with assemblies and annotations We're excited for users who might train new models, find phenotype/genotype mismatches, or any other use

#microsky Pleased to share this work led by Cat Wilson as part of her PhD, tracking Salmonella transmission in low intensity agricultural settings in Malawi. TL;DR - lots of transmission between humans, animals and environment within households. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

London interdisciplinary #PhD position now open with myself, @sergemostowylab.bsky.social, & @gmknght.bsky.social on #phage -bacteria-host immune dynamics for WHO priority bacterial pathogens #Klebsiella, #Shigella, and #Staph. Combines cellular microbiology, genomics, & mathematical modelling.

We wrapped up #IMMEM XIV over the weekend and it was a fantastic success with over 250 participants from 35 countries. A big thank you to the organisers and specifically @esgem-sg.bsky.social our study group on epidemiological markers! The content will be available on ESCMID media soon. #clinmicro

Sometimes you meet absolutely incredible bioinfo-magicians. It was a huge privilege when @shenwei356.bsky.social joined our group for a year on an @embl.org sabbatical. While here, he developed a new way of aligning to millions of bacteria, called LexicMap 1/n www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Assistant Prof post in bacterial genomics @unibirmingham.bsky.social Come and join us!! @imibirmingham.bsky.social www.jobs.ac.uk/job/DOO184/a...

Our high-precision metagenomic strain caller, PHLAME, is now published in Cell Reports!! www.cell.com/cell-reports... PHLAME works on tough sample types -- including those with coexisting strains of a species and low depth.

Very exciting work here from Sanjana Kulkarni, Maha Farhat and team. CNN prediction of MIC, v thoroughwork!!

Register today for the 14th International Meeting on Microbial Epidemiological Markers (IMMEM XIV)! Topics range from how genomics inform resistance profiling to pathogen surveillance in a #OneHealth framework. 🧬 ✍️ Register: ow.ly/gjOZ50WpOXX 👀 Programme: ow.ly/Whj850WpOXY#OneHealth #IDSky

Our paper “Global dissemination of npmA mediated pan‑aminoglycoside resistance via a mobile element in Gram‑positive bacteria” is now in @natcomms.nature.com. Part of my freshly defended PhD, so doubly happy! 😄🎉 🧵 (1/14) www.doi.org/10.1038/s414...

Researchers at @lshtm.bsky.social, led by @josebengoechea.bsky.social, will conduct a £2.2M study funded by UK MRC to investigate how Klebsiella pneumoniae silently colonises the gut before causing deadly infections. 🔬🦠 Read more 👉 bit.ly/4mNSreh

Late breaker abstracts for IMMEM conference, to be held in beautiful Portugal this September, close Friday May 23! Something for the #ABPHM25 crowd to ponder 🤔 www.escmid.org/congress-eve...

🧬Antibiograms have been used during outbreak investigations for decades as a surrogate for genetic relatedness of #MRSA 🦠Authors evaluate the accuracy of antibiograms in detecting transmission, using genomic epidemiology as the reference standard www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

📣Our latest paper is out now in mSystems: Not quite as it may seem - investigating #plasmid diversity and evolution in #Klebsiella pneumoniae at a single institution over time. A short thread 🧵 @zaminiqbal.bsky.social

Happy to share the findings of our latest work on mutational adaptation of Staphylococcus aureus during colonisation now published on @NatureComms rdcu.be/d55l3

Our paper investigating the mutational landscape during Staphylococcus aureus during colonisation is out now rdcu.be//d55l3 @fcic.bsky.social @sangerinstitute.bsky.social @ibv-csic.bsky.social University of Cambridge @julianparkhill.bsky.social

Three potential PhD positions are now open for applications! - MRCLID: (1) integrated with my fship - AMR prevalence by age&sex (2) long term collab. - AMR gene transfer - Nagasaki: new collaboration comparing UK&Japan AMR rates mrc-lid.lshtm.ac.uk/projects/ www.lshtm.ac.uk/study/resear...
