I am ecstatic to announce that I’ve been awarded a
@wellcometrust Early Career Award! I couldn’t have done it without everyone who helped me along the way! I will join @Dunn_School to do some exciting science on efflux pumps for the next 5 years!

A project in my lab with @JessicaMABlair seeks to understand how efflux pumps can be used to improve organic solvent tolerance in industrial processes, and how this can be balanced against energy demands. warwick.ac.uk/fac/cross_fac/…

Have you seen that @oldjoeclock is blue? He is helping us highlight #WorldAMRAwarenessWeek! Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) occurs when bacteria becomes resistant to antimicrobial agents, meaning antibiotics become ineffective and increasing disease risk. who.int/campaigns/world-amr-…
