Exciting work recently published on Shigella and host lipids - led by @UofA_SET PhD student @alice_ascari! @BEijkelkamp @RenatoMoronaUoA @Wilson_LabUofA @sonjzzz

Our exciting new work shows that S. flexneri redecorates its cell surface when transitioning to an intracellular lifestyle. The pathogen has an appetite for host lipids to supplement its energy needs, thereby depleting host lipid droplets. journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/jb…

With clinical trials well underway at CMAX for @gpnvaccines’ new pneumococcal vaccine, we are very grateful for this support to help advance another vaccine into this pipeline to help combat ear and lung infections🧫💉

Researchers including @erin_brazel from the @RCID20 @UniofAdelaide have shown how we can restore the use of #antibiotics in the fight against antibiotic resistant #pneumonia. A great example of how fundamental research can lead to transformative discoveries for human health!

Excited for my 1st author PhD paper to be published! We show that #zinc disrupts cell wall synthesis and an #ionophore can restore #antibiotic treatment of #pneumonia in mice. #MakingAntibioticsGreatAgain @RCID20 @UniofAdelaide @McDevitt_Lab @DrMJMaher @StJude @UQ_SCMB @MarkvonI
