Estimating mutation rates under heterogeneous stress responses PLOS Comp Biol by @LanjuLucy from Helen Alexander journals.plos.org/ploscompbiol/a…

Exciting times - after a huge team effort from Microbial Evolution Research Manchester (MERMan) we have some beautiful sparkly new lab spaces! 🎉🥳🪩Now for the science...

We had a great time at the Community Festival this weekend! It was amazing to chat with so many people about all things microbial and see the wonderful creations on our Make Your Own Bacteria stand Social Responsibility UoM Biology, Medicine and Health UoM Science and Engineering Evolution, Infection and Genomics (EIG) UoM

A thoroughly soggy MER-hike with this lovely lot yesterday - huge thanks to Rowan Callum Green for organising! Microbial Evolution Research Manchester (MERMan)

#SMBE2024 poster ready to go! Come and chat about mutation rate plasticity, h2o2, simulations, fluctuation assays and e.coli // e.faecalis cocultures. (Also Microbial Evolution Research Manchester (MERMan) visits teotihuacan with Louise Flanagan , feeling very lucky to be in Mexico).

Come join the most friendly and exciting microbe eco-evo group Microbial Evolution Research Manchester (MERMan)

Very excited to be presenting the last of my PhD work at #SMBE2024! If you're interested in the impacts of nutrient environment and mutational constraint on regulatory evolution, come talk to me after lunch at poster 50 😊

#Evol2024 come along tomorrow morning at 10:30 in 520C if you want to hear about mutation rate/spectrum plasticity and an E. coli strain with a super low mutation rate 🧬🦠💻

Excited to share my 1st paper along with Bridget Watson Tiffany Taylor edze westra Sylvain Gandon and David McLeod academic.oup.com/ismej/article/… where we asked “when would using a defence system (CRISPR-Cas) be selectively advantageous over mutations that block phage binding?” 1/10

🚨 We're hiring! 🚨 We're looking for a Research Assistant to join our lab @ U of Manchester. We're seeking someone with experience in #microbiology & #microbiome to support our growing group. Note this isn't a postdoc role (though keep 👀 for those soon!) jobs.manchester.ac.uk/Job/JobDetail?…
