🪰🦠🧬 We loved hearing from @katiemillar.bsky.social on the stability of K. oxytoca across Medfly diets, regions & populations and the potential for microbiome-targeted biocontrol approaches
🥰 Some beautiful slides too

And finally at @microbesng.bsky.social #MNGPopUp our @nisbetalice.bsky.social is chairing the last session including the keynote from @pathogenomenick.bsky.social titled “Pathogen surveillance through #metagenomics: the next frontier?" Looking forward to some more great #Genomics #ECR talks first!
🌊🌿 How do saltmarsh grasses shape the climate?
DMSP is one of Earth’s most abundant organosulfur molecules—produced by marine microbes & invasive saltmarsh plants like Spartina.
Tamim Kabir takes a deep dive into DMSP dynamics at #MNGPopUp #ECR

Next up from our group at @microbesng.bsky.social #MNGPopUp is @nisbetalice.bsky.social talking about #genomic insights into #ParatyphiA carriage, providing key evidence showing that this serovar must be studied as an unique pathogen and not be bundle together with other typhoidal #salmonella!
We loved hearing from @c-hill13.bsky.social on a new TIS annotation-independent method that digs deeper into essential and regulatory genome regions 🎉🧬🦠
#ECR #MNGPopUp #MicrobialGenomics @quadraminstitute.bsky.social @norwichmicro.bsky.social
@stevenrudder.bsky.social's talk was 🔥 Extracting ultra-pure DNA from stool & bacteria—trickier than it sounds but critical for long-reads
🔍 Long-reads resolve repeat-rich genomes
🦠 Improve outbreak tracking & #AMR mapping
📈 Better study of mobile genetic elements
#MicrobialGenomics #ECR #MNGPopUp
Next up from our group at @microbesng.bsky.social #MNGPopUp is Claire Hill talking about a novel pipeline she has developed for analysis of Transposon Insertion Sequencing #TraDIS data which looks at the raw signal to gain information of essentiality in absence of a fully annotate genome! 🤩🧬
First up from our group at #MNGPopUp is @stevenrudder.bsky.social about his work on improving High Molecular Weight DNA extraction from stool for @nanoporetech.com's long read sequencing using Revolugen's FireMonkey kit.
Who knew you could great such great 🧬 from 💩 for clinical #ONT diagnostics!
And an amazing talk to kick off @microbesng.bsky.social #MNGPopUp by Leanne Sims @quadraminstitute.bsky.social with a talk on engineering Shewanella oneidensis to recover precious platinum group metals at a large industrial scale from waste!
#ECR #MicrobialGenomics
Who is excited for an exciting day of #MicrobialGenomics with @microbesng.bsky.social #MNGPopUp #ECR conference?
We are! Our students @stevenrudder.bsky.social & @nisbetalice.bsky.social will be giving talks on their #PhD in addition to our new Postdoc Claire Hill. Day full of great science ahead.
Excited to be attending the ECR Symposium on Microbial Genomics organised by @microbesng.bsky.social @norwichmicro.bsky.social #MNGPopUp
