Without the development of new #antibiotics, said Prof. Dame Sally Davies, drug-resistant infections “will grind on for decades and [they] won’t burn out. We know that with viruses, they burn out, you generally develop herd immunity, but this isn’t like that.” theguardian.com/global-develop…




Congrats to Jane Oliaro and team on this exciting study into #zinc and how it regulates tumour cell susceptibility to T cell killing. A cool collaboration between #cancer immunologists Peter Mac Cancer Centre, TNF-signalling experts WEHI (Walter and Eliza Hall Institute), & the McDevitt Laboratory nature.com/articles/s4141…

Congratulations McDevitt Laboratory for the win 🙌🎉🎇 Thanks ASM Vic Branch for putting on such great events

Today is International Microorganism Day – here’s a message from our President on this very special day for microbiology! #InternationalMicroorganismDay International Microorganism Day

Congrats to Aurélia Hiron and team, Université de Tours, for their #genetics study into how the #pathogen Streptococcus agalactiae adapts to low #zinc. An international collaboration 🇫🇷 🇦🇺 with Christopher McDevitt Stephanie Neville UniMelb MDHS Doherty Institute doi.org/10.1128/mspher…


Chloe Estoque is a PhD candidate exploring how the immune system uses essential micronutrients, such as copper, to kill Streptococcus pneumoniae.
