Watching your parents grow old is kinda sad. Met mines after nearly a year, and sm has changed.

In our study published today in Science Magazine, we provide a proof of concept for the potential use of ancient microbes as a source for developing new drugs by synthesising previously unknown metabolites from reconstructed gene clusters. science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Super excited to share my first publication! Alex and I did a deep dive on AMR and learned so much during the whole process. Huge thanks to Gerry for his guidance and support. Give it a read because there's always something new to learn about AMR! @gerryiidr

Wright Lab is excited to represent at CSM!

An absolutely amazing end to Day 2! Dirk rocks!!

Congratulations to one of the friendliest faces in academia! Dr. Zubyk I’m so immensely proud of you! Sad I couldn’t be there in person but I heard that there was the loudest and most excited laughter ever heard outside of the walls of a thesis defence! Haley Zubyk you go prof Z!

I had an amazing time sharing my work! Super grateful to CSM 2024 Conference for giving me the opportunity to present!
