Can classical microbiology transform microbiome research? 🤔 Our new article explores how integrating microbiological concepts can build a stronger theoretical framework for microbiome sciences. 🌟 Read more about the path to hypothesis-driven research:

New preprint 🚨: with @Mariusz78897208 we found that the Bacteroidetes beta-barrel assembly machinery is quite different to E. coli. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/… #cryoEM
ALT Comparison of B. theta and E. coli BAM complexes. Only BamAD components are shared, and B. theta BAM has five novel components, BamF-J.

We are very excited to announce our latest work on how MRSA conquers antibiotics. We show that high-level resistance to methicillin requires S. aureus to utilise an alternative mode of cell division to ensure its survival! @Sheffield_AFM @Olulana4
