So excited for my first first-author paper to be coming out! 🎉 Please have a read. @NLD_BBSRCDTP @LivUni_IVES – at North West, England
Factors other than AMR contributed to pathogen success over the antibiotic era. We used temporal GWAS to identify these, including a widely distributed novel adhesin. Check out @RJBennett33’s epic work here to find out more bit.ly/3KtltgK

Why did one AMR plasmid disseminate globally and one die out? Find out inside this awesome work bit.ly/3oMRrup led by @MalakaDeS with @Jaws_Stenhouse @GraceBlackwell @RJBengtsson @ClaireJenkins2 @JPJHall 1/8

Drinks on me! 🍾🍻🥂 Only possible due to fantastic lab members, collaborators, and mentors. Thank you all! Congrats to all the new appointees @DurBiol
Huge congratulations to my fantastic PhD supervisor Tim Blower @BlowerLab on being promoted to Professor! Unbelievably happy for you, been an honour to be part of the journey so far. A great mentor and friend, truly deserved🍾 beers on you then, yeah?
Thank you so much to @BSingletons for getting a t-shirt to me before I left the US!. I love it :)

Here's a summary reel of my fab time at ASM!🤗 Thanks again to @bioinformer, @blacksciblog, @bielleogy, @JWoodelius, @BSingletons for the awesome chats & connecting me with others! 🤗 Thanks to @MutantBug & @MedResFdn_AMR for support & funding to go! #ASMicrobe @ASMicrobiology
First in person conference talk at #ASMS2022 done ✅ Amazing experience! – at Washington, DC
Popped into the Microbiology in space session at #ASMS2022 this morning. What a fascinating set of research! Going where no microbiologist has gone before 🤣 #ASMicrobe

Attending @ASMicrobiology #ASMicrobe in Washington DC? Swing by at 9.15am on Sunday June 12th to hear our latest #SIREN work, looking at variant-specific antibody responses...😁

Why Salmonella Agona? What are the new genome structures found? Why does this matter? Come by at 4pm for the next poster session to CIV02 to poster number 522 to find out more about my placement work with @LangridgeLab on this! 🦠 #ASMicrobe @ASMicrobiology
Rebecca Bennett retweeted
So who's going to @ASMicrobiology #Microbe22? Come and see the @NCTC_3000 poster tomorrow at 2157 – at Hillingdon, London
After over 2O hours of travelling, finally made it to Washington DC for ASM 2022. Registered and ready to go. Cannot wait to give a talk later in the week. #ASMS2022 #ASMicrobe @NLD_BBSRCDTP @LivUni_IVES

Defended my PhD thesis today!! Thank you to my internal @jpjhall and external @dannagifford for valuable scientific discussions! Thanks to @MicroTanya @MatthewKelbrick @Samriti04 @GhafliHawra @fitzy5050 for the wonderful celebrations and to @BellFionaA for the lovely bake!

Listeria monocytogenes round 2! If anyone fancies a chat about a deadly food pathogen, you can combine it with a cardio session and come find me on the third floor 💪. Poster B204. #Microbio22 @MicrobioSoc – at Belfast, Northern Ireland

Massive thanks to @NEBiolabs for coordinating this. Can confirm @RJBennett33 has made the pick up at #Microbio22 and will get this little treasure into the hands of an overjoyed 4 year old shortly. Thanks Becky (and @RaskoDavid who also rallied to the cause!)
Hey @NEBiolabs my 4 year old is obsessed with your conference toy from 2019 (Thanks!) He badly needs a new one, but manufacturer only sells them by the 1000s. Any chance you have a spare? coming to UK @MicrobioSoc conference?
Day 1 of #Microbio22. If anybody fancies a chat about identifying novel genetic drivers of long-term success in Shigella over the past 100 years come and see me at my poster later tonight - A266. Let me take you back to the future 🧬👩🔬🚗🔮 @NLD_BBSRCDTP @MicrobioSoc @LivUni_IVES

Excited to share my first first author preprint from my PhD!!! Thanks to @HANDEvo and my supervisor Dr Jonathan Bollback. Special thanks to @texasrulz1 for providing valuable feedback to improve the manuscript. (1/4)
