Thanks for all the kind messages today about my appearance at the #CovidInquiry. More to be said in evidence in the coming days (we stopped unexpectedly early today), but the report Ganesh and I wrote is now publicly available for anyone interested: covid19.public-inquiry.uk/do…

Join us this Friday for #EuropeanResearchersNight in @tcdTBSI and learn how to train your immune system to beat the bugs! Even try your own hand as a part of our pest patrol team to see how well you can defend yourself against bug invasion!🦠🧬🦠 #startatern #irishresearch

3) Loss of IFN-I removes trail and daxx expression and significantly reduces apoptosis of phagocytes in the nasal cavity, leading to enhanced clearance of S. aureus in colonised mice.

4) Together, we highlight the importance of IFN-I in facilitating S. aureus nasal colonisation and the role that phagocytes play in restricting this notorious opportunistic pathogen and important human coloniser!

I'm thrilled to share my recent publication with the amazing @McLoughlin_Lab and team! Together, we show that S. aureus can drive IFN-I dependent apoptosis in phagocytes to enhance nasal colonisation! nature.com/articles/s41420-0…

2) we show that S. aureus induces IFN-I in a strain dependent manner, leading to the upregulation of the apoptotic factors trail and daxx culminating in caspase-3 cleavage.

Would highly recommend doing a PhD in the host pathogen interaction lab. Rachel is a superb supervisor with an amazing lab, and I am so happy to have done my PhD with her and the team!
We are hiring! If you are fascinated by how bacteria manipulate immune cells then this is the PhD for you!

I am so delighted to see my paper out in the world! We show that S. aureus drives glycolysis, limiting the pentose phosphate pathway to inhibit neutrophil function and facilitate its intracellular survival. Many thanks to my supervisor @McLoughlin_Lab & to my amazing Co authors!
More insights into how this crafty bug evades the immune system! Culmination of fantastic PhD work by @EmilioVozza @tcdbi S.aureus suppresses pentose phosphate pathway in human neutrophils via adenosine receptor A2aR to enhance intracellular survival |mBio journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128…
