Happy to see this published. Great collaborative effort to explore emergence and evolution of Salmonella 4,[5],12:i:- in Australia using Bayesian phylodynamics, genomic epidemiology, and phenotypic characterisation. nature.com/articles/s4146… Doherty Institute Hudson Institute of Medical Research

Very happy to have my first paper published as part of my PhD, "Optimising genomic approaches for identifying VRE transmission in healthcare settings". Thanks to all involved for their help along the way. nature.com/articles/s4146…

There's no question - none at all - that we have to focus on and respond to the emergencies in front of us. Fires, floods, and now Japanese Encephalitis have all challenged us in recent years. But we MUST address an underlying driver here - climate change - and act urgently. 1/2

In nature today (open access), we report the structural and mechanistic basis of how bacteria harvest energy from air. We reveal a novel enzyme, Huc, consumes atmospheric levels of hydrogen gas and transfers the derived electrons for aerobic respiration. nature.com/articles/s4158…

New IPCC Synthesis Report released One of the most impressive figures relates to the fairness across generations. The generation of my kids born in 2010s will face substantially more heatwaves, heavy rainfall and droughts during an average lifetime than their grandparents.

Grateful to IAS - the International AIDS Society for the offer to attend the morning's press conference on HIV in Australia, alongside the IAS President and Doherty Institute Director Sharon Lewin. Relevant work submitted for peer review (🤞🏻), more to come soon.

What are the dynamics and durability of neutralizing antibody responses after Omicron BA.1/BA.2 infection? Our new study from Wen Shi Lee Hyon-Xhi Jennifer Juno Adam Wheatley Stephen Kent and team tries to scratch the surface of this. science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…
