I had a great time yesterday presenting my research on the type I-D CRISPR-Cas system at #BMH2024 for RNA technology day. Thank you to IUBMB and NZSBMB for your support!

I’m happy to share my first publication of my PhD, which is online now in mSystems titled ‘Advancing microbiome research in Māori populations: insights from recent literature exploring the gut microbiomes of underrepresented and Indigenous peoples’ 🦠 journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/ms…

1/8. 𝐧𝐜𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐬 often fly under the radar... but they're vital in bacteria-phage conflicts & beyond. Curious 𝙬𝙝𝙮!? 🤔 Here, we dive into their immune roles, plasticity, and discuss their hidden potential! 🧬🚀 🔗:cell.com/trends/microbi…

Not too late to submit an abstract to #crispr2025 meeting in NZ! Please share! We can’t wait to see all you crispr enthusiasts in Christchurch.

We would love to see you all at #CRISPR2025 in beautiful New Zealand! It's going to be a great week 👩‍🔬🦠 #CRISPR #NZ #phage #biotech

Still a little more time to submit your abstracts! Get yours in soon and tell your #crispr friends to submit too!
