Happy 2nd birthday to the @M_Stracy and Isom labs! We celebrated yesterday for 12 hours, with laser tag, bowling, and many hours in the pub. 2 years has flown by! Thank you to everyone who has made the @Dunn_School so welcoming and to our lab members for being so fun to work with

!!! New pre-print alert !!! (1/n) We describe the chemical, pharmacological and immunological conditions that determine humoral responses to B-lactam antibiotics. This was a fun project, especially in the tradition of the @DunnSchool. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/… – at Oxford, England

Born #OnThisDay in 1881 was Sir Alexander Fleming FRS, who discovered penicillin when he recorded a bacteria-killing mold growing in his lab. Rather than throw it away, he observed it under a microscope. Find out more about the origins of penicillin: bit.ly/3fzddxd

Work in hospital? Want to predict which patients will go home in the next 24h, or how many will leave hospital in total? We do this with only 3-5% error using data from 150k admissions: medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/… Could AI transform how your hospital runs? @bdi_oxford @ModMedMicro

A nice summary of our AMR detection work - from our key workers! Cool animations too.
Researchers from @OxfordPhysics and @NDMOxford are collaborating on a new diagnostic test for bacterial infections and #AntimicrobialResistance. We've created a short film about the test and its #CitizenScience project @InfectInspect. Read more here 👇 oxfordmartin.ox.ac.uk/long-r…

Celebrating one year of the @M_Stracy and Isom labs with pizza, drinks and ⛳️. Can’t believe that it’s been a year already, and that we have enough people in/associated with our groups to have that many people crammed around the table! Here’s to the next year ☺️🥼🧫🧬🔬
