We're very excited to start this new @BBSRC funded project @IMIBirmingham in collaboration with @ptchivers exploring #iron uptake and use in #Bifido! Keep an 👀out for a soon to be advertised #PDRA post @hall_lab & check out @ptchivers #PDRA role 👉durham.taleo.net/careersecti…
Thanks to a new funding injection, @unibirmingham researchers will investigate how the gut microbiota can help infants that have iron deficiency anaemia. @IMIBirmingham birmingham.ac.uk/news/2024/n…

We have a funded PhD project in the lab in September! Joint with P&G, with time in their research labs too & a mini MBA. We will be looking for and characterising new glycoprotease enzymes #glycotime findaphd.com/phds/project/no…

Excited to be presenting at MicroSoc in Edinburgh! If you’re interested in mycobacterial genomics or secretion systems, look out for my talk in the Genomics Forum session! 🧬🦠 #Microbio24

This whole thing is such a non-story, it says in the article 'students, people who look after family or a home, people with disabilities, and early retired and discouraged workers.' Are included in the figure but please go on about how lazy and entitled young people are you mugs

The new pre-print from the @GraingerLab! Really cool work mostly done by the talented @mulecc. Charles noticing a strange grey colony snowballed into this great story. – at East, England

She didn't die because of mental health struggles, she was murdered because she is trans. Hope this clears things up, Keir.
Today I met Esther Ghey, whose daughter Brianna was murdered last year.
I am utterly in awe of her strength and bravery in the face of such unimaginable grief, as she campaigns to make sure no parent has to go through what she did.
Labour will work with campaigners and parents like Esther to ensure our children and young people have the mental health support they need. It’s what Brianna and her family deserve.

Super proud of @n9_aaron for successfully completing his viva! First PhD out of the lab. Big thanks to @fi_cuskin and @LucyICM for examining. We took a bit of the deviation from a German viva hat and made a viva tuque.
