My first PhD paper is out - exploring mosaicism in the 𝑁𝑒𝑖𝑠𝑠𝑒𝑟𝑖𝑎 𝑝𝑒𝑛𝐴 gene at the population level! Very excited to share this work. Thanks are in order to @OdileHarrison and Martin Maiden @MaidenLab for their excellent supervision. microbiologyresearch.org/con…

BIGSdb v.1.42.6 has been released. This version expands list query functionality to every table in the database – previously it was only possible to use lists to search by attribute values for isolates, profiles and alleles for single loci.

Come and do a PhD with me and Tim. It'll be fun, I promise! @Overtonlab @ChemEngBham @IMIBirmingham
Fully-funded PhD position now recruiting as part of @MIBTP1 with me & @JessicaMABlair: efflux pumps are used by bacteria to confer antibiotic resistance, but can they be used to pump out organic chemicals and so improve industrial processes? @ChemEngBham warwick.ac.uk/fac/cross_fac/…

We have had to implement rate-limiting on the PubMLST API. We have always requested that API calls are limited to no more than 4 concurrent connections. This is now enforced due to abuse and additional connections will automatically be rejected. pubmlst.org/api

BIGSdb v1.42.5 has been released. This introduces a new plugin that provides a wrapper for ReporTree (pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/3732…) – a tool for the automated identification of genetic clusters. BIGSdb powers all the databases on @PubMLST. github.com/kjolley/BIGSdb.

I’d like to think PubMLST as a hub for data AND bioinformatic tools integration. This is one of the many examples. For my thesis, I found hicap very useful for Hinf serotype identification, and asked Keith’s help to do his magic so other users can easily access the tool ✨
PubMLST now incorporates serotype identification using results from hicap (@stephen_watts & @DrKatHolt) in H. influenzae genome records. Example at pubmlst.org/bigsdb?page=info…. Overseen by @made__krisna.

Had an amazing session at EduCon 2023 which was all about diversity and inclusivity in teaching. Had the honour to deliver a bioinformatics worship for beginners for implementation in undergraduate courses. #educon2023 #ASM2023
