Congratulations to Prof Ferenc Mueller and Prof Jessica Blair, who have been awarded two of the four sLoLa grants from @BBSRC. Their innovative projects will investigate gene expression and antibiotic resistance, pushing frontiers of bioscience discovery.

We're delighted that researchers from @unibirmingham have been awarded two of four prestigious grants available from @BBSRC to develop projects which have potential to lead to major new contributions to biological knowledge. @UoBmedicalsci @UoBinfectionsch https://t.co/puSGq0deOT
