Enjoyable two days spent in London discussing how to assess microbiome safety.
🆕 | @uofgsii.bsky.social colleagues attended the recent @microbiologysociety.org Annual Conference 2026 in Belfast.
Spanning all career stages, the team showcased their research and contributed to key sessions, demonstrating the depth of Bacteriology at Sii.

Congrats to first author @sekid.bsky.social & thanks team & collaborators
We show that B. bifidum & E. coli can cooperate in the breastfed infant gut through nutrient cross-feeding, helping shape early-life microbiome development 🦠👶

If you are attending then check out the posters from @phoebecrossley.bsky.social and Khowalh Alsayel from my group, presenting their research on the Wednesday. @uofgsii.bsky.social
The journey to #Microbio26 begins. En route to Belfast via train, bus, and ferry.
Looking forward to a great conference 🧫 @microbiologysociety.org
New preprint from us @modmedmicro.bsky.social where we validate the diagnostic accuracy of a metagenomic nanopore sequencing method for respiratory RNA viruses.
