JOB alert! Permanent Scientist role within my team in AD3, UKHSA. You'd be joining an exciting, friendly and productive team at Porton Down. Closing date Nov 22nd. ukhsa.reed.com/jobs/scientist…

Today is the final day in the lab of my PhD. It's been challenging, exhilarating, and frustrating at times, but ultimately, it's been so much fun! Now, onto the next challenge, writing the thesis! #NearlyPhDone #PhD #PhDChatter 📸 Xena Dyball





Really enjoyed having the opportunity to share my work on #Phage cocktails at VoM-UK 2024. Thanks to Darren Smith and team for organising! Some excellent phage work going on in the UK! Quadram Institute


New mini-pre-print alert! 🚨 In a collaboration with Joanne Santini and her former student Marco Crisci, we (Hannah Pye, andrea telatin and @EvelienAdri) classified the Lak megaphages and are proposing a new order, the "Grandevirales" (1/5) biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Our review 'Bacteriophages for bronchiectasis: treatment of the future?' has been published in CO Pulmonary Med ✨A wonderful collaboration between Quadram Institute, Norfolk and Norwich University Hospitals and MED UEA! A big thanks to all co-authors Catherine, Eleanor Mishra and @EvelienAdri shorturl.at/pyBMU


Delighted to have been awarded the judge’s runner up prize for my poster at Microbes in Norwich ! 😊Thanks to Centre for Microbial Interactions for a great conference, and congratulations to all the other winners! 🥳✨

Thank you so much to Franklin Nobrega for a brilliant student lunch after his seminar at Quadram Institute on synergistic bacterial phage defence systems!


What an awesome week! Lots of great science, discussion and fun! Been a pleasure to host our collaborators @EvelienAdri Matt Gilmour Ryan Cook Ana Victoria and Xena Quadram Institute for a research visit to Hany E. Anany Lab Excited to start another adventure with #phagome #foodsafety


Great to share my first paper in my new(ish) role with @EvelienAdri at Quadram Institute, now published in MGen (Microbiology Society). We sequenced three human faecal viromes with ONT and Illumina, assembled using a number of algorithms (inc hybrid approaches) (1/6) doi.org/10.1099/mgen.0…
