Thrilled to announce a new @natcomms.nature.com paper led by Alastair Stewart and team @victorchang.edu.au with contributions from @mcdevittlab.bsky.social Using #cryoEM we discovered unique features of the #Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATP synthase including an unexpected role for #zinc in the complex 🦠🔬

Proud #supervisor announcements! Congratulations to two of my brilliant PhD students 🌟 🥳 Huge congrats to Salma Naleem for winning the University of Melbourne 3 Minute Thesis competition, and Abigail Hartono for winning the Graduate Student Poster Award at the Doherty Symposium! 🔥 You’re both stars!

🗞️ New interview! @camcdevitt.bsky.social and @ellacasale.bsky.social of @thedohertyinst.bsky.social spoke to The Australian Financial Review about developing PBT2, a CARB-X-supported oral therapeutic that aims to restore the activity of antibiotics used to treat CABP. 🧪 #IDSky 🔗 bit.ly/45j832Q

Antibiotic resistance kills millions. These Australians have an answer

Investment in research has stalled, which means scientists are struggling to work on solutions for a serious global health issue.

The costs of #antimicrobial resistance 🦠 continue to rise 📈. The Center for Global Development reports that by 2050 #AMR could shrink the global economy by US$1.7T. Improving treatments and funding development of new antimicrobials 💊 could save millions of lives and billions in healthcare costs.

Forecasting the Fallout from AMR: Economic Impacts of Antimicrobial Resistance in Humans

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a growing global health crisis that threatens to undo decades of progress in medicine. This tool allows you to explore the potential impact of different interventions...

Congratulations 👏 to Matt Giles for representing @mcdevittlab.bsky.social and the Moraes group at the CanBIC-9 conference. A great presentation sharing his recent work on the #zinc uptake pathways in the #AMR bacterial pathogen 🦠 #Klebsiella pneumoniae.

Excited to announce a funded #PhD project with my amazing colleagues Jeff Harmer and Evelyne Deplazes (Uni of Queensland). This collaborative project uses #biochemistry 🧪, advanced spectroscopy, and computational approaches 🖥️ to study a #zinc export system in a priority pathogen 🦠. Find out more at:
