So happy to see this AMR-related story from our 3-way collab!! Huge congrats to Alison + team, and thanks to.@oxmartinschool.bsky.social.for supporting it. Basic idea: deep "learning" ribosome distributions after antibiotic treatment rapidly classifies cells as resistant or not.
Our work on rapid detection of antibiotic resistant and susceptible cells using ribosome phenotypes is out today! We used fluorescent imaging and changes in bacterial structure to classify single cells with high accuracy. @AchillesKap @oxmartinschool

The buzz is still on! We had an A-M-A-Z-I-N-G time at SMolBac3 - exciting discoveries, cool new methods, lively debate at a Cotswolds setting. Thanks to all who joined and CU in 2-3 years for IV! 👍👍 @BiochemSoc for co-organising!

11 days to go, **still some spaces left**! Great opp to hear the latest s-mol work in bacteria, network and pick up new techniques. Great location too - colleagues RT!.
3 weeks to go. send us your single-molecule bacterial stories for our Cotswolds get-together!

New preprint! Congrats to @alisonefarrar for superb work on turning "ribosome maps" into a way to detect #antibioticresistance quickly! One more fruit from our "collaborative tree" (with @CNellaker & Nicole Stoesser @ModMedMicro) planted using @oxmartinschool seeds!.
Can we tell whether a bacterial strain is sensitive or resistant to an antibiotic in 30 minutes, with a single image? Ribosome phenotypes let us see intracellular changes associated with antibiotic resistance in 1 image. #antibioticresistance
