📢 Attention antibiotic tolerance researchers! Our GIANT review of 50+ years' of clinical antibiotic tolerance data is now available online in Clinical Microbiology Reviews. Check it out here: journals.asm.org/eprint/UUSIDYA… ASM Dr Jo Hobbs Ashley Deventer Claire Stevens

Excited to share something from my previous postdoc with Marco Galardini, a collaboration with the Jörg Vogel using lab evolution to see how different bacterial species develop resistance to programmable antibiotics: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Staphylococcus aureus responds to the host environment by synthesizing a thick peptidoglycan cell wall. What proteins are required for this response? Research in #AACJournal suggests the penicillin-binding protein PBP4 plays a crucial role. Learn more: asm.social/2a4

I am very excited to announce our latest work on how MRSA conquers antibiotics. In this work, we showed that high-level resistance to methicillin requires S. aureus to use a distinct form of cell division to ensure its survival. Sheffield AFM Group Foster Lab science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

This is an awesome piece of work from Foster Lab , demonstrating that high level methicillin resistance in Staphylococcus aureus requires a distinct mode of cell division - Two codependent routes lead to high-level MRSA science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

We are very excited to announce our latest work on how MRSA conquers antibiotics. We show that high-level resistance to methicillin requires S. aureus to utilise an alternative mode of cell division to ensure its survival! Sheffield AFM Group Abimbola_Olulana doi.org/10.1126/scienc…

Affinity maturation happens outside of the GC? 🤯* * Well, kinda... PB/PCs leave the GC and expand proportional to their affinity. Massive kudos to the legendary Andrew MacLean and the rest of the Nussenzweig_LAB team. Check out the pre-print here. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

📢 New preprint alert! Claire Stevens Ashley Deventer BSRC St Andrews Staphylococcus aureus COL: An Atypical Model Strain of MRSA that Exhibits Slow Growth and Antibiotic Tolerance biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

In case there is still some people left here: 🚨 A twixmas surprise, our final paper of 2024: Sharing of cmeRABC alleles between C. coli and C. jejuni associated with extensive drug resistance in #Campylobacter 🧵 over on BS. journals.asm.org/doi/full/10.11…

My postdoc mentor Kevin Foster is hiring postdocs! Apply to join an exciting research group looking at ecology and evolution of the gut microbiome. Kevin is a fantastic mentor and I can completely recommend: fosterlab.uk/vacancies

Still time left to apply and join my team on a fully funded PhD project investigating dynamics of the bacterial DNA damage response in live cells using microscopy & genomics

Our latest paper is out in science advances discussing cell division and morphogenesis control in S. aureus. Massive congratulations to Mariana and all of our other authors and collaborators!! science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Latest preprint from our lab: Mis-localization of PBPs in Staphylococcus aureus gdpP mutant contributes to β-lactam resistance and surface protein cross-wall trafficking biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

It's out! The final peer-reviewed version of our paper on Prs-mediated tolerance in S. aureus COL is now published in Molecular Microbiology. Read it here! onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/mm… Congratulations Claire Stevens!
