Our work on the biosynthesis of Aquastatin anti-MRSA #antibiotics now online Chemical Science ! Congrats to Nicolau Sbaraini for his #MyFirstChemSci π₯³ Another great collab w/ Microbialscreening.com Andrew Piggott Macquarie University School of Natural Sciences Molecular Sci-UWA Checkout here: pubs.rsc.org/en/Content/Artβ¦


A great way to end the week with a lab BBQ by the river #perthisok w/ amazing π from Amr Arishi celebrating our recent Chemical Science Angewandte Chemie publications and Clara Woodcraft thesis submission πΎπ₯ But also farewell to Darren Holland π₯² All the best in Tassie, Darren!


π¨ Exciting Opportunity! π¨ Molecular Sci-UWA is hiring for the Metcalf Chair in Chemical Biology! Lead innovative research at the intersection of chemistry and biology. Join us in shaping the future! π #ChemicalBiology #ResearchExcellence odgersberndtson.com/opportunities/β¦



Our paper on the molecular basis for the Biosynthesis of the 1st reported Fatty Acid Synthase Inhibitor - Cerulenin - is now officially published in Angewandte Chemie Check out our work! Molecular Sci-UWA Macquarie University School of Natural Sciences microbialscreening.com


Merry X'mas π to whoever that will receive my 25th π©Έ Thanks for the opportunity to give π And thank you, the Morley lifebloodau team for your fantastic work and for the π« & cute mementos ππ€



Happy to announce the beta release of #BiGSCAPE2! This is the result of a great effort by Arjan Draisma, Catarina Loureiro and Nico Louwen, who worked tirelessly to improve the code from the ground up! See the major features here github.com/medema-group/Bβ¦

In a year with so little to cheer about so far, I am happy to share our manuscript on a copper-dependent halogenase. Unbelievable effort by GS Yorick Chiang and Scientist Ph.D Masao Ohashi at UCLA Chem & Biochem UCLA Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering . Thank you to all collaborators and @NIGMS. nature.com/articles/s4158β¦

Deeply sad to hear the news about Julian Davies passing away yesterday. Beyond being a great scientist and a mentor we were friends for over 30 years. Your legacy will leave on forever with me UBC Dept of Microbiology and Immunology Institut Pasteur, since 1887 #antibiotics #AMR



Excited to share that my paper has been published in ACSChemBio! A great collaboration with Zhuo (Alex) Shang and Heng Chooi. Thanks to my spvs @petersolomon99 Megan McDonald and other collaborators Joe Bracegirdle Andrew Piggott Stephen Moggach pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acβ¦
