Home for the next days in this beautiful palace hosting #iums2024 in Florence, Italy 🇮🇹 International Union of Microbiological Societies Sociedade Portuguesa de Microbiologia

Fascinating talk (as usual) by Martin Blaser about our dissapearing microbiota with long-lasting effects across generations International Union of Microbiological Societies #iums2024

Excellent and important talk by Rafael Cantón clearly explaining the recent advances in fast antibiotic susceptibility testing International Union of Microbiological Societies #iums2024

Save the date as the next International Union of Microbiological Societies 2026 will occur in Lisbon! 🇵🇹✨

You want to run antibiotic MICs according to best-practice clinical microbiology protocols, but you are not sure how? Our article will walk you through it all! Great to work with Nikol Ayesha Mahmood and a pleasure to publish in npj Antimicrobials and Resistance. rdcu.be/dZp04 #AMR

So proud of our students for joining #WAAW2024! They created a powerful poster and video to highlight the vital importance of safeguarding antimicrobials (too large to post here). We are all part of the solution! 🌍💊 Cespu_Ensino UCIBIO MicroMundo@IUCS_CESPU

📢New paper in the lab! We explored genomic/epidemiological landscapes of redundant pbp5 genes in Enterococcus spp. with exciting results: sciencedirect.com/science/articl… @Carla_Novais11 Ana R Freitas Luisa Peixe Oscar Quijada Paula Bierge Cabrera Miquel Sánchez-Osuna UCIBIO STOTEN

🎉We started the theoretical training of our incredible MicriTAs, taking the 1st step towards a new learning cycle. We will continue next year with laboratory training preparing the activities for school students. Happy Holidays! 🎅 Cespu_Ensino TOXRUN UCIBIO

🙌🏼 So proud of our PhD student Ana Santos for publishing this hard work at the final stage of her thesis. We found a little of everything in a small sample of fecal healthy humans, take a look. More are coming soon!

Check out this exciting collection of #enterococcus papers from our great colleagues!

Another year, Spain at the top in clinical microbiology (#ECCMIDGlobal2025). However, it is sadly surprising that we do not officially have the Infectious Diseases specialty. What else should we do?Ministerio de Sanidad CIBERINFEC ECDC SEIMC @GEMARA_SEIMC ESCMID @ESGEM_ESCMI 👇RT!

Talking about #AntimicrobialResistance and #Micromundo for RTP Notícias today. Thanks TOXRUN Cespu_Ensino for the invitation to beautiful #Porto ES MISIÓN POSIBLE

🎬 I was honoured to lecture in redEMC - Cursos Online course “Antibiogramas 2025: WHO Priority Bacteria and Fungi. New advances and challenges in the interpretation of the Antibiogram" with >1,400 participants. Thanks for the invitation Rafael Cantón & co-organizers! UCIBIO
