Delighted to be able to contribute (barely) to the Data Reuse Consortium. A great idea - looking forward to the DRI tag becoming standard in microbiome research

This paper has been a long time coming: We looked at the genomes of historical bacterial samples over a century to look for trends of antibiotic resistance genes, finding multiple instances of them in infections before the age of antibiotics, but an increase in both frequency and mobility after

Changes to the classification

Big news from Finnish publication forum. Almost all MDPI and Frontiers journals will be downgraded to level 0 and thus are not considered as properly peer reviewed trustworthy scientific journals.

Security pro tip: if you find a USB key on the ground somewhere, DO NOT plug it in to your home computer.

Take it to the office and plug it in there. They have way better software that will mitigate any threats.

Our latest paper is out now. The brilliant Chris Connorโ€™s entire PhD in one paper. And I hope a new avenue of research opened in MDR E. coli

Did a big thread on Twitter, but will keep it short here.

We have a new paper out! If you're into signal transduction, staph aureus, and/or nifty molecular biology then check it out.
