New paper from the @mmcbuckner Lab (@Parisa_PK). We tested the effects of different natural product extracts on the conjugation of AMR plasmids. Lots of great effort from ex-students Judith, Ruth, Jes, Poppy, Nivi, @OnaNeo @celiakessler98 and @huba_marton.

We identified cobalt complexes without antibacterial activity that modulated plasmid conjugation.
We found that they do not have plasmid-curing effects.
Could further optimisation of metal complexes offer compounds with promising sources of anti-plasmid activity?

Our new paper is now out in @SciReports.
This was the result of a little collaboration between @DrRianneLord, the @mmcbuckner Lab (@Parisa_PK, Pedro Ernesto de Resende, Frank Ker funded student Hannah Partington), and Simon Gibbons.

Two academics from our College were part of the 'Women with Impact' group who visited Parliament last week, working with Edgbaston MP @PreetKGillMP - congratulations to @mmcbuckner from @IMIBirmingham and @cdtgillett from @IMSR_UoB.
Last week, some of our academic colleagues were invited to Parliament for a Q&A with @PreetKGillMP
The group were part of the Women with Impact cohort – a scheme set up by the University to help support academics and address some of the gender disparity in policy engagement.
