Our new pre-print is out on the gen-epi of invasive Group A Strep in Victoria #strepA We show not only the impacts of Covid-19 and the expansion of M1UK, but we found we had a previously dominant clone of M1 isolates (M1AUS). Check it out here papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cf…

I'm very excited to announce my research group. Our focus is on obtaining genomes from clinical samples without culture. For more information on Enriching Microbiology, be sure to check my website: enrichingmicrobiology.net

My team here at the Utah Public Health Lab is looking to hire a genomic epidemiologist. Come join an amazing pathogen genomics team and make an impact on public health. governmentjobs.com/careers/utah/j…

Emergence and evolution of mosaic penA-60 and penA-237 alleles in a Neisseria gonorrhoeae core genogroup that was historically susceptible to extended spectrum cephalosporins tinyurl.com/3nj4n9wm

Our latest manuscript is out: Co-localized infection of N. gonorrhoeae and N. meningitidis in a body site facilitates homologous recombination affecting biochemical species identification tests. tinyurl.com/3vps8unm

We have done it! We crossed the 1,000,000 voter mark at around 11:50am. Amazing turnout! So happy for the counties and the voters! Let's keep it going.

We have an opening on my team at the Utah Public Health Lab. We are looking for someone with NGS experience to help us sequence all the things! governmentjobs.com/careers/utah/j…
