Great to see this research officially published with @mbiojournal
Discovery of the Pseudomonas Polyyne Protegencin by a Phylogeny-Guided Study of Polyyne Biosynthetic Gene Cluster Diversity

In collab with @Challis_Group @Hertweck_Lab Congrats all!

We've developed a simple tool to reorient complete microbial genomes to begin with conventional start genes - originally dnaA for bacteria, but also for plasmids, phages & custom genes @viji112 @BeardyMcFace @susiegriggo_ @BhavyaPapudeshi

Successful 18 mile kayaking trip on the river Wye. We had the river to ourselves for most of the journey!
End of an era, using the lab clean as an excuse to clear my lab bench and drawers - officially no more lab work for me at Cardiff
Next month will be my office desk!

Aircon in our lab is basically non existent at the moment and the corner of the lab by the windows is over 32°C.
So the 30°C incubator is actually COOLING to achieve temperature - definitely need to report this to facilities...
Excited to join the group and get started!
Congratulations to @AlexJMullins who has been awarded one of BBSRC's 22 new Discovery Fellowships. We look forward to hosting him in our Warwick lab for three years from August. ukri.org/news/bbsrc-announce…
Excited to see the official announcement of the latest @BBSRC Discovery Fellows - and have my name on the list!
Congratulations to all the other fellows starting this year, look forward to meeting you all and starting my research!
Announcing our 2022 Discovery Fellows🎉 Meet them here: orlo.uk/RX4aB We’re excited to see their innovative projects come to fruition.
Feeling inspired? Applications for the BBSRC Discovery Fellowship 2023 programme are now open🔽 1/
ALT "...The 22 individuals named as BBSRC’s latest Discovery Fellows demonstrated their aptitude to deliver outstanding science as well as their capability and capacity as future bioscience leaders. We look forward to tracking their progress and success as they develop their skills, abilities and experiences for the wider benefit of UK bioscience." Dr David McAllister, Director of Talent, Inclusion and Funding Delivery at BBSRC

When you have no data to present at the lab meeting
@AcademicChatter @AcademicsSay
Got to pitch my poster at #ISME18
Feel free to stop by at poster 543 this lunchtime if interested in natural products, polyynes, or biocontrol!
Fantastic review comment that Ken Nealson received for a submitted paper at the start of his career
"I can't find anything wrong with the data, but the conclusion can not be correct - bacteria don't do this"
I would have loved to include this at the front of my thesis

Going on right now at #ISME18
"SeqCode Info session"
● Validation of a name under the SeqCode

Ken’s simple explanation of electrotrophy, next to chemotropy and phototrophy… again, deep sea hydrothermal vents are natural niche for electrotrophy = geoelectricity
#ISME18
Fantastic plenary lectures by @PEngellab and @Slack1Emma on understanding and manipulation of microbiomes at #ISME18
Can't wait to start the talks and poster sessions tomorrow!
