Dear #AMR #genomics and big data community: please be informed that the programme of the Wellcome AMR conference in Hinxton on March 23-26th is now online: coursesandconferences.wellcomeconnectingscience.org/event/antimi... - please register before Feb 24th for onsite participation
The 1st Klebsiella Epidemiology and Biology Symposium in 2024 was much needed and a great event, so I'm really looking forward to the 2nd in 2027.
Bacteria chromosomes contain Genomic Islands that provide virulence, antibiotic resistance, MGE-defence,... They transfer between cells, but the mechanism of most remains elusive.
Here we explore the conjugative capacity of these mysterious Genomic Islands.

Are you a post-doctoral microbiologist interested in characterising bacterial resistance evolution and want to apply your knowledge and expertise to developing new therapeutics for Klebsiella (and other Enterobacterales) infections? Then we need you! Apply now bit.ly/3MX39Ce close date March 13th 👀
A novel version of diphtOscan is available at gitlab.pasteur.fr/BEBP/diphtos.... v2.2.0 makes it easy to install on local computers. diphtOscan scans genomes and extracts information including #diphtheria toxin and antimicrobial resistance genes, biovar, species and subtyping information.
It's out! The LIN code approach for genomic taxonomy of microbial strains and its applications in genomic epidemiology journals.plos.org/plosbiology/...
🧫 Our publication,“Global perspectives on Klebsiella epidemiology and biology: conference report on the KLEBS 2024 symposium,” is now out!
