Fantastic talks tonight from our Nancy Millis Awards finalists. Congrats to winner Catherine Dawson and runner-up Brodie Gillieatt (from my lab! Yay!) who have their conference expenses paid for our ASM annual meeting in Perth. Thanks ASM NSW/ACT Branch for organising !

Heeey Australia! We have an opening for a PhD student (domestic scholarship) in my lab, soderstrombill.wixsite.com/billslab . High-level microscopy & bacteria. If interested, please reach out for an informal chat. uts.edu.au/scholarship/cr…

Absolutely thrilled and grateful to receive an EMBO|EMBL travel award to attend the upcoming New Approaches and Concepts in Microbiology symposium. Thank you EMBO and EMBL for the awesome opportunity. Can't wait to learn and connect at EMBL Heidelberg.

onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11… A review on cross-linking proteins to RNA in microbes. Spearheaded by two very talented PhD students from my lab. Discusses a lot of the issues that we have been dealing with. Hopefully, the community will find it useful!

Excited to share the latest preprint from the Jai Tree lab. This work was made possible by incredible collaborators David Lalaouna and A/Prof Amy Cain. Check it out now on BioRxiv and watch this space for more soon, biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

We're hiring! A post-doc position is available in the lab to work on RNA-based virulence gene regulation in bacteria. Come and join us in Sydney, Australia 🐨 Email details, and please RT. external-careers.jobs.unsw.edu.au/cw/en/job/5202…

Any talented microbiologists out there looking to work at the interface of industry and academia? linkedin.com/posts/ceastar_…

I'm proud to share our new Nature Communications paper on iRIL-seq, an updated and streamlined version of #RIL-seq to map RNA-RNA interactomes in vivo without UV crosslink! We revealed many mRNA regulatory hubs targeted by >=4 sRNAs and a new 3'UTR-sRNA FadZ. rdcu.be/ds2tQ

It’s that time of the year! Call for Student Abstracts: ASM Nancy Millis Student Award 2024 Submissions Due: March 1st Awards Night: March 27th For more info, see flyer below!

Come along and support our next best and brightest microbiologists!

I'm happy to share that my first-author paper published in msystems is now out! This was based off my PhD work which looked into the sRNA interactome of vancomycin-tolerant S. aureus using a multi-omics approach. journals.asm.org/doi/full/10.11…

Our last Jim Pittard awardee Daniel Mediati describing his research on how mRNA-mRNA interactions co-ordinate bacterial gene expression #ASM2024

Currently at #ASM2024, Prof. Matthias Boll is delivering the prestigious Rubbo Oration! He's sharing groundbreaking insights on anaerobic bacteria—from bioremediation and biogas production to biotechnological and therapeutic applications!

Having a blast at #ASM2024! Thank you for the invitation to present on AMR Mechanisms. Well done Piklu Roy chowdhury Yan Liao Mehrad Hamidian for the presentations. Congrats Liam Tobin for the Nancy Mills Student Award Daniel Mediati for the ASM Jim Pittard ECR Award! Australian Institute for Microbiology & Infection
