Very proud of this work! It's been years in the making which only shows how little we know about this relevant #Salmonella serovar, check out the🧵👇.And what could be better than sharing first authorship with one of your best friends and working closely with an incredible team!.
Did you know Salmonella Panama is an important cause of diarrhoeal and iNTS disease globally? 🦠🧬🧫🔬Our genomics work driven by @1caiseypulford & @BlancaPerSep characterises diversity, AMR, & invasiveness to bring new insights into this pathogen 1/8
