Delighted that our review of Aeromonas dhakensis is now available. This zoonotic bacterium can infect many warmwater aquatic animals and is often misidentified as A. hydrophila #fishdisease #aquaculture Institute of Aquaculture Stirling Natural Sciences Pathogens MDPI mdpi.com/2076-0817/13/6…

A great privilege to hear from Prof. Dame Melanie Welham on her career journey & inspiring advice for our Eastbio DTP students at last week's Annual Research Symposium hosted this year University of St Andrews. Quite the coup! 😀 #eastbio24

Post-doc available Institute of Aquaculture in mucosal vaccines & sea lice, closes soon but still time to apply. Details here: stir.ac.uk/about/work-at-…

With more and more reports of Aeromonas dhakensis infections of humans and aquatic animals, here is our latest review covering some essential info including approaches supporting correct identification. Institute of Aquaculture mdpi.com/2076-0817/13/6…

Loved this from BBC Sounds archive: Institute of Aquaculture legends discuss challenges in tropical aquaculture in 1999. Importance of University of Stirling in aquaculture // Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office overseas aid // disease diagnoses // nutrition, feeds & circular economy. Well worth 13 mins! bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/p0…

I'm delighted to co-lead the new ‘AMR in Agrifood Systems Transdisciplinary (AMAST) Network’ that takes a ‘farm to fork’ systems-thinking approach to tackling #AMR in the UK food system #AMASTNetwork. Funded by UK Research and Innovation. Info on the new networks here: ukri.org/news/new-resea…

Eight new networks announced to tackle antimicrobial resistance #AMR, funded for 4 yrs by UK Research and Innovation. Looking forward to contributing to the leadership of two of these (#AMASTNetwork and IMPACT). Stay tuned for more info Stirling Natural Sciences Quadram Institute London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine

#UofStirling microbiologist Dr Andrew Desbois (Andrew P Desbois) will co-lead a new network set up by UK Research and Innovation (UK Research and Innovation) to tackle antimicrobial resistance (#AMR).
