Learning more about how this crafty bacterium shapes host immunity. Latest work from the lab initiated by ⁦@john_leech07⁩ but brilliantly developed by talented PhD student Alanna Kelly #hostpathogeninteractions ⁦TCD Biochem & Immuno⁩ ⁦TCD TBSI⁩ journals.plos.org/plospathogens/…

Great lab day out yesterday ⁦GoQuest⁩ a convincing win by team Superbugs but a valiant effort by the Staph day out team

#EMDS2022 was absolutely stellar! Great talks from so many amazing researchers. Glad to be apart of it and have the chance to share my own work.

I am so delighted to see my paper out in the world! We show that S. aureus drives glycolysis, limiting the pentose phosphate pathway to inhibit neutrophil function and facilitate its intracellular survival. Many thanks to my supervisor Dr Rachel Mcloughlin & to my amazing Co authors!

Had a great couple of days in Newcastle for the first time at the UK Neutrophil conference with my colleagues Emilio Vozza & Zhenguang Zhang from the VPD Heart & Lung Research Institute.

I'm honoured to be awarded the BSI career enhancing grant to investigate neutrophil innate immune training. Many thanks to BSI and to my supervisor Charlotte Summers for her help and support!
