Gratulerer, Terje Johansen !!

Check out our latest preprint on the exciting work led by Jalal Uddin, PhD identifying Klebsiella pneoumoniae hydrolases with roles in host-pathogen interactions. Thanks to all collaborators including @Mfellnerlab Matthew Bogyo, Tulsi Upadhyay Mona_Johannessen and others not on X.CANS - Centre for New Antibacterial Strategies

Special thanks to Marcel de Zoete and the fantastic team at UMC Utrecht who provided the gut organoid model and hosted Jalal Uddin, PhD for Klebsiella infection studies


Activity-based protein profiling of serine hydrolases and PBPs in Enterococcus faecium academic.oup.com/femsmicrobes/a… . Great work led by Jeanette Grunnvåg 🇧🇻 identifying 11 druggable, largely uncharacterized SH. Conserved activity patterns across Ef and E. lactis. @CANS_UiT Kristin Hegstad



Antibiotic tolerance in Staph aureus biofilms is induced by arginine depletion by Jeff Freiberg, MD, PhD in Nature Communications opens up possible new ways to treat challenging Staph infections 🦠 💉 💊 nature.com/articles/s4146…


So proud of Jalal Uddin, PhD, my first PhD candidate who is now Dr. Uddin after defending his PhD today with flying colors. Thanks to Josebengoechea and @prothiwa for their opposition as well as to co-supervisors Mona_Johannessen, Veronika K Pettersen and @Paal_Johnsen. @CANS_UiT.



Research dissemination is an art and it was mastered perfectly on scene by Jeanette Grunnvåg 🇧🇻 at Forsker Grand Prix Tromsø. Congratulations on reaching the national finale next week, which you´ll rock. Important contribution to generate public awareness about antimicrobial resistance.

Our work on genetic determinants for S. aureus fitness in milk is now available online. The study also exemplifies how milk can modulate antibiotic susceptibility. Congrats Marita Torrissen Mårli and thanks to all collaborators (Davide Porcellato Jan-Willem Veening Vincent de Bakker xue liu)!
