Our work on ”Regulatory RNA and its association to invasive meningococcal diseases” is now out in The Lancet Microbe . 😊Our SEM picture is the cover picture too. Very proud of the group! Jens Karlsson @strategiskaSSF KAW Karolinska Institutet @MTC_KI thelancet.com/journals/lanmi…

Thanks Hannes Eichner and Francesco Righetti for the beautiful coloured SEM picture of Neisseria meningitidis.

A good start to 2021😇. Our work showing how Neisseria meningitidis survives in the blood is out now! We also show that this variant is currently on the rise among invasive Neisseria cases!
