If you’re at the Viruses of Microbes conference, interested in Pseudomonas or phage therapy, check out @hannahvpye.bsky.social ‘s poster no84. #VoM2026

Today @ryancook94.bsky.social is presenting his posters on the trials and tribulations of working with phages and organoid models. #VoM2025

If you work with Klebsiella phages, you would probably like to know what genes are involved in resistance. Check out @deuskamya.bsky.social’s poster at #VoM2026 featuring lots of mutants.

In our final poster at #VoM2026, @rapher97.bsky.social explores the gut virome in healthy ageing. Visit his poster to find out what to expect when you get older…

Who infects whom? A big question in virome research. If you want to learn more, check out the work from @apedramfar.bsky.social from her PhD. #VoM2026

Have you ever wondered about prophages in an important gut bacterium? Check out @xenadyball.bsky.social’s poster at #VoM2026

#Vom2026: Had a fantastic opportunity to share my work on Maternal influence in shaping up the infants' virome at this year's VoM in front of 900 researchers. Thank you all for the wonderful feedback so far, and I will be happy to talk more about it. @evelienadri.bsky.social @ryancook94.bsky.social

Earlier today at #VoM2026 @revathykri.bsky.social presented her work on the virus population sharing between mothers and infants. She did a amazing job! Find her during breaks to talk methods, findings and everything virome!

I'm proud to share the latest methods work from my group. Led by @revathykri.bsky.social we wrote a book chapter on how we process and analyse viromes. Thanks to co-authors @rikhaagmans.bsky.social @ryancook94.bsky.social & Alise Ponsero link.springer.com/protocol/10....

Virome Analysis

Viruses are omnipresent and the most abundant biological entities on the planet. They play a critical role in shaping the ecology and evolution of all life forms. This chapter provides methods to perf...

Automated, almost-error-free consensus #assemblies with Autocycler Impressive benchmarks in Fig 2B (below): ≤10 median errors PER genome Once again, incredible, landmark work from @rrwick.bsky.social doi.org/10.1093/bioi... Tool here: github.com/rrwick/Autoc... #bioinformatics #genomics

Am so proud to say the planet is in right hands! Thanks @Eaton Primary! A whole week of long distance conversation about his work in his school through phone, which he brought home for me to see!

Great talk on viromics methods by @ryancook94.bsky.social #Microbio2025 telling us his view on the good, the bad and the ugly. Part of the story published here: doi.org/10.1093/isme...

In a different type of session this morning at #Microbio2025 about translation where the @quadraminstitute.bsky.social’s Matt Gilmour is talking about industrial partnerships brokered by the Food Safety Research Network

Check out poster B286 #microbio2025 by @hannahvpye.bsky.social who is presenting the BronchoPhage study in which we are developing a phage-based therapy for bronchiectasis. Hannah also gave a great flash talk!

Please go check out poster B070 #Microbio2025 by @deuskamya.bsky.social on understanding phage resistance development in Klebsiella

After being quiet for a while-I'm back on @bsky.app! 🎉 To kick-start my return, today I'll be presenting my work with @ukhsa.bsky.social on #typhoidal #Salmonella at #MicroBio25! Pop by poster 301 for exciting insights into enteric fever, including some innovative analysis on bacterial carriers! 🦠

🎓 #PhDPosition available in my group! 🫁 Understanding the microbiome and phageome in chronic lung infections for the development of phage therapy with me & Prof Eleanor Mishra 📅 Apply by Monday 14 April ➡️ buff.ly/7v9JVDU Happy to answer questions, but don't send your CV through email.

Come and learn about prophages of Ruminococcus gnavus from @xenadyball.bsky.social at poster B078 #Microbio2025

My favorite NPR story blog - “Goats and Soda” sent a writer and photographer to a rural school in India; an early adopter of Foldscope. A wonderful photo story of kids “reading nature”. In this current challenging climate - the kids show us the way with joy and wonder. www.npr.org/sections/goa...

10.1093/nar/gkaf113 Yet another evidence of prophages rewiring host transcription network. It feels really great to see the puzzle unfolding from where I left! Great work Dr.Iwona Mruk and team.

I'm very happy to report that Matt Schechter's PhD work is now online as a pre-print: "Ribosomal protein phylogeography offers quantitative insights into the efficacy of genome-resolved surveys of microbial communities", www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... Here's a little 🧵 about it.

If you have been using #anvio to analyze your microbial pangenomes, we have a new program for you to calculate rarefaction curves or Heaps' Law fit for your gene clusters: anvio.org/help/main/pr... Sorry it took this long :/ But at least t will run on any existing anvi'o pangenome :)

It was a great and long first day at IBSE symposium today. That's a great well received talk by @evelienadri.bsky.social today making my poster session so easy! I had a great time learning about the microbiome of various ecosystem from rhizosphere to Ocean! Gearing up for flash talk tomorrow!

It feels great to be able to present my work that I cherish everyday with @evelienadri.bsky.social in 5th IBSE International Symposium (ibse.iitm.ac.in/symposium-05/) @IIT,Chennai, my home. If any of you are in and around please find me with my poster S2-8 to know more about Early Human Gut Virome.

Thanks to @microbiologysociety.org for the travel grant this year. Looking forward to it.

This is going to be great and exciting opportunity for those who are interested in Molecular Nematology! Check it out!

Grateful to the Swedish Research Council (Vetenskapsrådet) for funding a 3 year project on antibiotic resistance & phages in my group. If you're looking for a post-doc position in 2025, have a phagey background, & are interested in combining wet and dry research then keep a look out for an ad soon!
