Finally at #BMH2024! Couldn’t help but expose twitter to the creation @ShaharnC and I made for #Serratia day earlier this month for the BMH2024 baking competition 💕💗💖🌸🐷🎀 May the best baked item win (although ours is pretty slay ✨) @bmh2024Melb

It was a privilege to present the work @Hazel_Sisson_ and I have been doing in @PeterFineran's lab in collaboration with @BriersYves. Thanks to the organizing committee @VoM_2024 for giving me the opportunity to present.
An excellent talk by @warring_l on using chimeric endolysins to combat Pseudomonas syringae infections in kiwifruit 🥝! Very proud of your hard work alongside @Hazel_Sisson_ ✨️. #womeninSTEM #VoM2024 #kiwiphage

Very excited to have a review out in Current Opinion in Microbiology covering the use of endolysins against Gram-negatives and how we can overcome the obstacle of the outer membrane! 🦠✨🧐🤠 sciencedirect.com/science/ar…
