Want to help build capacity in public health pathogen bioinformatics in the Asia Pacific region? 🦘Based in Melbourne Australia with @torstenseemann ✈️Travel to and work internationally 🧠Lead strategy, training & infrastructure Applications close soon! https://t.co/0twdUWDq5D

🧵1/ We are excited to share our @NatureComms piece where we explore methods for #onehealth genomic epidemiology and identify links between humans, animals, wildlife, food and the environment. Check it out here - https://t.co/BwrZxIZzi3. @TheDohertyInst @AIMI_UTS

New research: Successful management of a multi-species outbreak of carbapenem-resistant organisms in Fiji: a prospective genomics-enhanced investigation and response Read the full article here:

New year, new assemblies! I'm excited to announce Autocycler, my new tool for consensus assembly of long-read bacterial genomes! It's the successor to Trycycler, designed to be faster and less reliant on user intervention. Check it out: https://t.co/NksiyESF7u (1/5)

We wrote a review on Staphylococcus aureus response and adaptation to vancomycin 📜 acting for me as a wrap up of my PhD work https://t.co/QQU69RzwNf 1/4

What a whirlwind! HUGE thanks to all the global delivery and country partners in pathogen genomics 🧬 who brought all the energy and ideas to our 1st Sustainable Training and Implementation Framework for Public Health workshop #CPG @TheDohertyInst @WHO #IPSN @WHOWPRO @WHOSEARO

An amazing story spanning human history of Oceanic peoples, immunogenetics, NK cells and HLA. How the past potentially influences susceptibility to current day infectious diseases. https://t.co/l9AvFhtkNs

What a privilege to be a 2024 Victorian Young Tall Poppy #YTP24 for outstanding research and communication. Enjoyed hearing about all the incredible work being done at the awards ceremony last night. 🌸🦆🦠

Integrating different types of data across sectors can be challenging. The Canadian One Health AMR genomics contextual data standard, built in partnership with the Can gov't, is readily adapted for international use and supports public data sharing. #GRDI

🦠🔬An international team of researchers has found that an antibiotic commonly prescribed for patients with liver disease, has led to the global emergence of an almost untreatable form of antimicrobial resistant superbug. https://t.co/kB1MiMZu8D @UniMelbMDHS @TheRMH

Proud to see this paper from the lab out today @Nature showing how rifaximin use is driving dapto-R in VRE. Many years of work, great multi-disciplinary collaborations. Led by @adriannamturner and Glen Carter @TheDohertyInst @UniMelbMDHS @Austin_Health https://t.co/UTfCGiuPqc

Proud and thankful for positive reception we've had on our approach to embedding pathogen genomics research at the public health interface @auspathogen National collaboration has been critical for generating evidence for use and impact of genomics-informed public health in Aus.

Out today, the recipe for pathogen genomics implementation in Australia. 📜 1 tbsp of strong existing collaborations, 2 tbsp governance agreements, 1 tbsp computational infrastructure, and 10 tbsp of belief in the cause. See below for instructions! https://t.co/8ayB3atvb9

The panel discussion on "Implementation and accreditation" in the CDGN & @AusPathoGen "Introduction to metagenomic sequencing" webinar is well underway with some facinating perspectives from our panellists 🧬🦠

Just a couple of days left to apply for these postdoc positions!!

This month's tracking numbers of sequences of priority pathogens from across Australia are now up on the website🦠🧬Follow the link to read more about the individual pathogen projects👉 https://t.co/rAKCowJDgQ

Beating Buruli Team @SciMelb @CSIRO @CurtinUni @PEARG_Lab @Austin_Health @VicGovAg is a finalist in the AIDRC Eureka Prize for Infectious Diseases Research. Learn more: https://t.co/5uplZHUFuX #EurekaPrizes

Latest episode of Editors In Conversation Podcast #AACJournal, we discuss with the @WHO leader @valeria_gigante analyses of the antibacterial pipeline based on a comprehensive analyses over the last 5 years. @ASMicrobiology @asm_tmc https://t.co/fwQgDqdvI1

Did you know that thousands of sequences from across Australia have been contributed to the @AusPathoGen Program across several priority pathogens?🦠🧬You can see our monthly tracking numbers on the website and read more about the individual pathogens too👉 https://t.co/KwIrdbiNVi

It is hard to overestimate Torsten's contribution to microbial genomics, since so much applied work runs on his stuff. Awesome news!
