Hear about some of the work we’re doing to help understand and fight #AMR #WAAW2024 @ilyas_alav @IMIBirmingham

This #WorldAntimicrobialAwarenessWeek, hear from Dr @mmcbuckner and her team on the vital work they are doing to combat antimicrobial resistance, and the impact of this global health threat. @ilyas_alav @ImmunologyUoB @UoBinfectionsch @UoBbiosciences @unibirmingham #WAAW2024

PhD studentship alert!! Two projects available with me @IMIBirmingham on the @MIBTP_BBSRC This one is with @mmcbuckner warwick.ac.uk/fac/cross_fac/… And this one with @Overtonlab warwick.ac.uk/fac/cross_fac/… Both will be lots of fun! Come and join the team 😃

Please RT! fully funded PhD available with me and the wonderful @TheSullivanLab to explore how a clone of Staphylococcus capitis has evolved to infect neonates buff.ly/4hafYDx @TheQuadram @uniofeastanglia

Very pleased to have this out- this paper includes the efforts of many UG and PG students over the past few years! As well as @ilyas_alav @Parisa_PK and S Gibbons! Well done everyone! @IMIBirmingham @unibirm_CMH microbiologyresearch.org/con…

New paper from the @mmcbuckner Lab (@Parisa_PK). We tested the effects of different natural product extracts on the conjugation of AMR plasmids. Lots of great effort from ex-students Judith, Ruth, Jes, Poppy, Nivi, @OnaNeo @celiakessler98 and @huba_marton. microbiologyresearch.org/con…

New paper alert! Natural products from food sources can alter the spread of antimicrobial resistance plasmids in Enterobacterales - @MicrobioSoc @mmcbuckner #publishingforthecommunity #MicrobiolJ go.shr.lc/3WX90Zg

Pleased to share that I’ve been promoted to an ASSOCIATE Professor of #AMR, and today is my first official day in the new role! 🎉🎉 @IMIBirmingham @unibirm_CMH

Are you an innovative, agile, forward thinking researcher seeking a position within a progressive, fail-fast environment? BSAC is seeking someone to work across research and policy, to help translate evidence to action, bring policy into practice to improve effective antimicrobial prescribing, mitigate the risk and harm of antimicrobial resistance and improve outcomes for patients across the globe. Expressions of interest and abridged CV to tguise@bsac.org.uk (Part time or full time considered, flexible working the norm with once monthly / occasional attendance at offices in Birmingham UK required).

Last few days to apply for a postdoc position in beautiful St Andrews! ☀️🏖️ Looking for a microbiologist, ideally with some background in bioinformatics. @StAndrewsBSRC @univofstandrews Closes this Friday (19th). vacancies.st-andrews.ac.uk/V…

For anyone working on #AMR or #antimicrobialStewardship - check out the @BSACandJAC short survey about what you like/don't like about conferences and events! Pls RT & share! surveymonkey.com/r/BSACEvent…

Wow!! This looks like a fantastic PhD opportunity!

Just 2 days left to apply for this PhD studentship on metal based antibacterial, with me and @ma_webber @TheQuadram @UEA_Chemistry 😊🙏🏼

Join myself and @ma_webber for this multidisciplinary PhD project on developing new antimicrobials. An excellent opportunity for working across two institutes - @UEA_Chemistry and @TheQuadram Only open to UK students - deadline 9th May! RTs appreciated🙏 jobs.ac.uk/job/DHA885/phd-st…

I am looking for a motivated PDRA to join the lab @UoBbiosciences to work on methanotrophs in lakes. it's a 4 year position, deadline 15th April. edzz.fa.em3.oraclecloud.com/…

We identified cobalt complexes without antibacterial activity that modulated plasmid conjugation. We found that they do not have plasmid-curing effects. Could further optimisation of metal complexes offer compounds with promising sources of anti-plasmid activity?

Our new paper is now out in @SciReports. This was the result of a little collaboration between @DrRianneLord, the @mmcbuckner Lab (@Parisa_PK, Pedro Ernesto de Resende, Frank Ker funded student Hannah Partington), and Simon Gibbons. nature.com/articles/s41598-0…

Two academics from our College were part of the 'Women with Impact' group who visited Parliament last week, working with Edgbaston MP @PreetKGillMP - congratulations to @mmcbuckner from @IMIBirmingham and @cdtgillett from @IMSR_UoB.

biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/… New preprint from the @mmcbuckner Lab. @Parisa_PK, @huba_marton, @OnaNeo, @celiakessler98 We investigated the effect of natural product extracts on plasmid transmission.

Funded PhD! Come join my team as we study #AMR transmission in the human gut microbiome with @EncapsulatingDr and @WvSchaik. Part of the U of Birmingham’s 125th anniversary scholarship open to Black British students. @IMIBirmingham @unibirm_MDS. birmingham.ac.uk/study/postg…
