I'm enjoying it so much. Such good work being presented, somehow with both humor and humility... Adelaide is beautiful and I'm looking forward to Melbourne next. 😍

Of titans and taxonomy: The naming of Cronobacter sakazakii

📣 Person behind the name

Riichi Sakazaki identified Enterobacter sakazakii, a cause of neonatal sepsis

The genus was renamed Cronobacter after Cronos, the Greek god who devoured his children to prevent their supplanting him

My own university has a "strategic goal" to increase research "outputs" by 10% annually (7 year doubling time). Your university is almost surely working towards the same. University rankings are now the main driver of this damaging institutional behavior. Publication is an out-of-control arms race.

Weighted-incidence syndromic combination antibiogram (WISCA) to guide antibiotic regimens for empiric treatment of prosthetic joint infections: A retrospective cohort study Prosthetic joint infections (PJIs) are now routinely treated with oral antibiotics, but selecting empiric regimens is challenging, including for treatment of culture-negative PJIs. Although antibiogra...

📣 What is a #WISCA?

It's something you should probably use for culture-negative prosthetic joint infections. Local antibiograms alone can be misleading.

This WISCA showed that doxycycline + a fluoroquinolone offer best coverage for #PJI
