A teal flyer for a PhD opportunity to investigate how warming may change antimicrobial resistance. The project will use experiments on Klebsiella bacteria to answer questions about how temperature affects their response to antibiotics, plasmid transfer, and fitness costs. The research involves microbiology lab work, bioinformatics, and mathematical modeling. The flyer includes contact details for Dr. Daniel Padfield and the logos of the sponsoring institutions.

I have an MRC-funded PhD project available (www.exeter.ac.uk/study/fundin...) on how warming will change the problem of AMR. Join a small and friendly group (padpadpadpad.netlify.app/about) in (sometimes) sunny Cornwall. πŸ§ͺ🦠 #microsky

For our #flowcytometry peeps, would you like to have a single fix/perm protocol that is optimised for everything? One that preserves fluorophores while allowing simultaneous TF and cytokine staining? How about 100-fold cheaper?

A photo looking north along Seacliff beach. There is a huge curve of orange sand framed by black cliffs to the left, and Tantallon Castle stands on the further point of the cliffs, looking grandly out to sea. On the right, the sea is grey and moody, with white frothed waves breaking onto the sand. The sky is all grey but streaked with different shades, purple through to white. The atmosphere is slightly dark, slightly moody, really beautiful.

The next phoot looks south alon Seacliffe beach. The sand is now curving on the right of the photo, and the grey sea rolls in from the left. There are more rocks in this direction, both on the shore and in the sea. The rocks are covered in barnacles and seaweed. A small lighthouse marks the furthest point of invasion of the rocks into the sea.

The last photo is very similar to the first, looking up the beach towards Tantallon Castle, high on the cliffs. This photo has zoomed in a little, so the only sand visible is very wet sand beneath the breaking waves, immediately in front of the camera, and this sand is reflecting the grey sky. Right in the centre of the photo is a small puppy, running towards the camera, proudly holding a bright red ball in his mouth.
