This morning, Mike and Janos (pictured below) set off from our site in Avonmouth to cycle 175 miles to its sister site in Elton, Cheshire!
The guys are raising money for @alzheimerssoc, and are currently at a total of £1530 👏

Thanks for the write up @The_Phage_xyz. Glad you enjoyed the our work on bacteriophage Pseudotyping led by the awesome @bio_tabs 👏👏👍🏻
Scientists from @cardiffuni and @uniofwarwick undertook a remarkable project to modify the Escherichia coli phage P2, redirecting its specificity towards the pathogenic bacteria Salmonella. thephage.xyz/2023/10/17/pseu…

Thanks so much for all the support @alanlparker! 🦠 Sad to be going but excited for the future 💫
A sad day for the lab as we say a fond farewell to @bio_tabs! What a rollercoaster it's been over the last 5 years - both the science, and, well, other stuff too (meh, COVID...). Off to a fab lab nearby who are lucky to have you! #OnceAVirusTinkererAlwaysAVirusTinkerer

Not a surprise to anyone who’s had their life blown to bits for the last 3 years.
But great to see it studied/reported in these stark terms. Comparison one of our best tools given how difficult it is for healthy people to get their heads round it.

11…yes that’s ELEVEN (!!) new adenoviral fiber knob structures including 4 in complex with sialic acid! This has been a long time in the making so enjoy a sneak peek whilst this is under review! biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/… #adenovirus #structure #sialicacid #receptor #preprint

Very excited to be sharing my first first-author paper that has just published in @ACSSynBio today on phage tail engineering for targeting gut pathogens 🦠 pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.102… @SBSatEd
Come see our escape room poster and see if you beat the puzzles! 🔬
Looking forward to a great day @cardiffuni Annual Infection & Immunity Meeting 2022 with @ExitusRooms Come & see our poster try the puzzles & win the chance to play our brilliant #escaperoom based on #cancerresearch @virustinkerer @alanlparker raising money for @tenovuscancer 🔑

We launched our #escaperoom during @CdfScienceFest 2020, 2000+ people have played so far & it continues to raise money for @tenovuscancer 🦠
Book now to see if you can escape in time @ExitusRooms 🔑

"Here, we re-engineered the Escherichia coli phage P2 to alter its tropism toward pathogenic bacteria."
@bio_tabs, @alanlparker, and @a_jaramillo_r provide evidence that pseudotyping P2 is feasible, suggesting a route to engineer designer phages.

Brilliant to be thinking & talking about our Virus Tinkerers #escaperoom @ExitusRooms again. One of my favourite #publicengagement projects with a great team. Thanks for kicking things off @eberlmat looking forward to catching up with you, @alanlparker @bio_tabs & Ceri soon 🔑 – at Cardiff, Wales
