🚨 New preprint! 🚨 We reveal that blaTEM-1 expression varies across the E. coli phylogeny, driving differences in co-amoxiclav resistance: biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Today my first editorial article came out! It's both an intro to my Monash Bioethics Review special issue on antimicrobial stewardship and social justice, and also an original article examining issues with the precautionary principle as a justification. link.springer.com/article/10…

Finally out after peer review, our update on the integron model showing that translation rates of cassettes in first position influence the phenotypes conferred by others downstream.
Great effort by @AndrePCarvalho

2) How can we routinely incorporate phylogenetic information into AMR phenotype prediction? Hybrid assemblies are not always possible, so we need shortcuts. (9/10)

Ever wondered how fast accessory genome dynamics of bacteria really is?
In a new preprint we (@mrcmolari, Liam Shaw) explore how rapidly E coli picks up genes horizontally, breaks genome synteny, etc..

For fun - but you might win a cuddly Microbe....if you have kids interested in art/drawing or science, why not ask them to draw a picture of a Microbe (easy to search online) and send them to us (details below) @BashTheBug . Or - no age limit - have a crack yourself! Please RT!!
