Exciting programme of talks today at today’s ’celebrate microbiology’ event
External speaker today at the MHD seminar Dr Becca McHugh @rebeccamchugh.bsky.social from Uni Glasgow. Great to more hear alternative antimicrobial agents.
Time for @kateduncan.bsky.social to talk about chemistry and why microbes use it via some interactive questions
👏🏻
Want to work on iron uptake in fungi? Together with Prof Jan Quinn, we have a 4-year funded PhD studentship (UK only) to join us here in Newcastle. Get in touch if you are interested.

We have a PhD studentship open! (UK only sadly) but if you are or know a student keen to work on some *really* weird mycobacterial enzymes then get in touch! #glycotime Advert below www.findaphd.com/phds/project...
Starting the afternoon session with a fun, interactive talk from @kateduncan.bsky.social exploring the chemical language of microbes🦠
Great talk from @kasiamic.bsky.social kicking off the Microbiology Research Celebration. @mhd-newcastle.bsky.social @cbcb-newcastle.bsky.social @medicalsciencesncl.bsky.social
We start of the ‘2026 Celebration of Microbiology’ event @newcastleuni.bsky.social @medicalsciencesncl.bsky.social organised by PhD and Postdoc reps from @mhd-newcastle.bsky.social @cbcb-newcastle.bsky.social Chloe, Natalia, Rachel and Jean-Lou
Want to research the basis of how drug resistant bacteria interact with human immune cells? Fully funded 4-year PhD position available (UK home students). Come and join our amazing interdisciplinary team at the intersection of microbiology, immunity, metabolism and the clinic! Please spread the word
