A study led by #UQ researchers has identified the main types of E. coli bacteria responsible for neonatal meningitis - and discovered why some newborn babies are reinfected. 🔗brnw.ch/21wISNb @MarkSchembri @nhunguyen2811 @IMBatUQ @UQMedicine 📸Adobe

Really excited to present this work led by @nhunguyen2811 at @IMBatUQ in collaboration with @sumaira_hasnain Glen Ulett and Jana Vukovic.
Researchers at @IMBatUQ have discovered why some E. coli bacteria cause severe disease and others don't. @LabSchembri says a mutation helps affected bacteria spread in the body, a finding that could help fight antibiotic resistance. Read more: brnw.ch/21wHci7 📸Adobe
