Excited for this first-author work from my PhD to be published in @ACSPublications, underpinning the strategies implemented by Shigella flexneri to adapt and persist in the presence of host compounds 🦠🧫 @BEijkelkamp @RenatoMoronaUoA

Happy to bring today #bacteriophages to perform #phagetherapy for the first time directly at the operating room of the paediatric hospital of @CHUdeLyon to treat a 10-year-old little girl with S. aureus prosthetic joint infection following sarcoma of the femur. This patient is the 58th treated patient at our institution, and the second in this pediatric hospital. Thanks so much to all people involved! There is definitely also a place for #phagetherapy for paediatric patients with severe bacterial infections! Time has come to imagine relevant clinical trials with dedicated methodology to try to demonstrate the added value of such incredible therapy! – at Lyon, France

My first publication! A short piece discussing grapevine microbiome monitoring in vineyards with a twist. Thankyou @AUSSOCMIC for the opportunity and @R_Eisenhofer, @Stephen_P_Kidd, and Sue Bastian for helping me get it done! publish.csiro.au/MA/MA23004

In @Nature today (open access), we report the structural and mechanistic basis of how bacteria harvest energy from air. We reveal a novel enzyme, Huc, consumes atmospheric levels of hydrogen gas and transfers the derived electrons for aerobic respiration. nature.com/articles/s41586-0…
