Cold plasma⚡ meets biofilms at #NISF25!

Had a brilliant time showing how this fourth state of matter is changing the game in antimicrobial research!

Huge thanks to everyone who stopped by to chat—always great to share the wonders of plasma science!

Extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing bacteria from hospital wastewater pipes: isolation, characterization and biofilm control using common disinfectants Hospital wastewater systems have been identified as reservoirs for antibiotic-resistant bacteria, with biofilms harbouring extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing micro-organisms posing significant infection risk.

Kicking off the new year with our latest research! 🎆

Thrilled with the success of our Postdoc Coffee Morning today! ☕ Great turnout, engaging discussions, and insightful career advice from Jill Wright. Thanks to everyone who joined and made it a memorable event! 👏 #postdoclife

Honestly, it’s like Schroeder’s PDF!

Could you add me too? Thanks!

@mjafreeman.bsky.social's BlueSky starter packs for 'mechanistic' biologists

Here’s my spreadsheet of starter packs (>80!) related to broadly ‘mechanistic biology’ plus some intriguing extras

Complete with collective nouns

I’ve been tracking these but now can’t keep up

Hope it’s helpful
