Love the message from Professor Dame Ottoline Leyser that science is more than just a “boffin” in the lab. Everyone that makes science happen is important, no matter what their role. In order for science to benefit everyone, it needs to be accessible for everyone #caselecture20
Great range of talks at the Microbiology Society Fleming Showcase so far. Although I’m not looking forward to watching my own pre-recorded talk later!! 😖 #WhyMicrobiologistsMatter
ECM Forum member, @RebeccaJHall13 Charlene Rodrigues and Dr. Rebecca Devine discuss their research in their five-minute theses, now at #WhyMicrobiologistsMatter. Find out more about them in their profiles, published on our website: microb.io/2K5ZSzP #FlemingShowcase
SUPER-BUG ANTIBIOTICS - Scientists have used gene-editing advances to achieve a tenfold increase in the production of super-bug targeting formicamycin antibiotics okt.to/Gl4Qi8 Dr. Rebecca Devine @MattHutchings10 Katie Noble @barriewilksjic @MfNISP
Really pleased to share the latest piece of the ‘fantastic formicamycin’ story! Here we used CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing to increase antibiotic production! 💊 🧬 👩🔬Hannah @MattHutchings10 @barriewilksjic Katie Noble Corinne Arnold Zhiwei Qin #ANTibiotics #postdoclife
We were very lucky to have Dr. Rebecca Devine from @MattHutchings10 lab present to our microbiology final year undergrads this morning. Your talk was awesome - Thank you Rebecca!
Can confirm I am always happy to science in exchange for chocolate 🍫 🧬 Thanks Lorena Fernández and co! 😁
Featured article from the @MattHutchings10 lab at John Innes Centre describes refactoring the #formicamycin #biosynthetic #gene cluster to make high-level producing strains and new molecules for the development of #antibacterial compounds dlvr.it/Rxlfgv
BLOG - Antibiotic-producing bacteria can be found in lots of places, like deserts, oceans and even in association with some insects. We like to look in under-explored environments to find new strains of Streptomyces that make new antibiotics... okt.to/CmpDHB Dr. Rebecca Devine
BLOG - "Without good antibiotics, there are many fundamental aspects of modern medicine that won’t be possible, not just treating infections. It’s vital that we find new antibiotics that have activity against drug-resistant microorganisms" - Dr. Rebecca Devine okt.to/Sg2xBj
