Wonderful talk by @c-cornbill.bsky.social , PhD student with @friendlymicrobe.bsky.social and I on her work on the effect of media on P. aeruginosa evolution to meropenem at the #MNGPopUp.
This work leads beautifully into her work using the ex vivo pig lung model!

I found this neat tool that lets you generate text and images just from your ideas. It's really good!
Reposting for the afternoon folks. My student & I need to interview people at companies to figure out what it takes to get our product from academic laboratory to commerical use. If you work for a biotech company, ecotoxicant cleanup co, or even something tangentially related, please dm/reply. Thx!

Fairy godmothers needed! For 18 months, I've been trying (and failing) to secure funding for a women's health-related study in my lab. It's too important not to do, so I'm turning to crowdfunding instead. Here's me chatting on RNZ's Checkpoint about it all www.rnz.co.nz/life/wellbei...

Reusable period products are under the microscope, or they would be if researchers could get funding to investigate them.
People who work in companies related to ecotoxicology and/or environmental (bio)remediation: do you have time to talk to me in the next week? I have questions about current workflows, barriers, existing solutions &what would make bioremediation useful in practice? DM me or reply here, thx!
