Thanks to Gilead Amit The Economist for wading into the world of SaPIs and phages! Making science accessible to the public is tough work. I can barely explain it to other scientists! Tiny hitchhikers on viruses could promote resistance to antibiotics economist.com/science-and-te…

Huge congratulations for this great story Ben Wiggins, @cschieri and everyone else that contributed! Check out the article (and thread) if you want to know more about the importance of endothelial cells in maintaining gut health 🦠🥦🧍

Very happy to share our review and view on bacterial conjugation Plasmids pick a bacterial partner before committing to conjugation academic.oup.com/nar/article/do…

Proud to share our latest discovery: Bacteria conjugate ubiquitin-like proteins to interfere with phage assembly A new concept in antiphage immunity, and a mechanism for ISG15-like antiviral defnese in bacteria. Big congrats to talented Jens Hör! A 🧵 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

🦠 Research from CBRB shows that antibiotics promote the growth of antibiotic-resistant bacteria in the gut. The study could lead to better patient risk assessment and treatments to help combat antibiotic-resistant bacteria. ⤵️ imperial.ac.uk/news/247213/an…
