RT @MikeyJ: I have three PhD studentships available currently through the MIBTP DTP on different aspects of the….

Please contact me if interested!.

I am also co-supervising projects on antibiotic accumulation in bacteria with @JessicaMABlair (, virulence and AMR in Staphylococcus with @StaphLab ( and using sound to combat biofilms with Paula Mendes (.

A project in my lab with @JessicaMABlair seeks to understand how efflux pumps can be used to improve organic solvent tolerance in industrial processes, and how this can be balanced against energy demands.

PhD projects now open in Birmingham as part of @MIBTP_BBSRC - funded and open to home and overseas students! Are you interested in bioprocesses, antimicrobial resistance, virulence, or biofilms?.

Good morning from day 2 of #ASBE7 - we continue this morning with talks on metabolic engineering, transport across membranes, and biosensors

We're ready to go with #ASBE7 here in Brno! @EFBiotechnology

In Brno for @EFBiotechnology @EFB_EBBS Applied Synthetic Biology in Europe VII tomorrow! But first an evening in the company of Janacek

This project was great fun and very interdisciplinary - thanks for everyone's hard work!.

New paper! What happens when you apply vibration to bacteria? We asked this question for E. coli and revealed that attachment decreases. This response requires live cells and involves membrane potential.

RT @ma_webber: Please RT! fully funded PhD available with me and the wonderful @TheSullivanLab to explore how a clone of Staphylococcus cap….

Currently in Stockholm for a PhD viva with my good friend Arrhenius

RT @DrSarahGordon: 📢 We are hiring! 📣 A 15-month research fellow position, working with myself, @Overtonlab and Jayne Lawrence looking at l….

This project was loads of fun and a real team effort - thanks to @emilywhittle17, @Horabz, Alex, Pauline and.@SJElement - @JessicaMABlair and I are looking forward to continuing the story!.

This adds to the growing story of the links between energy metabolism, physiology, and bacteria evading antibiotics and generally being troublesome.

New paper! Deactivating efflux pumps results in major changes to bacterial physiology. We demonstrate that knockout of the major efflux pump AcrB results in changes to membrane potential.

RT @EFBiotechnology: ⏳ Just 5 days left for 𝐄𝐚𝐫𝐥𝐲 𝐁𝐢𝐫𝐝 𝐑𝐞𝐠𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 and 𝐀𝐛𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐭 𝐒𝐮𝐛𝐦𝐢𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧 for #ASBE7! Don't miss your chance to to secure….

Just back from a very welcome short break - mercifully hard to think about work here!

Huge congratulations to Alex for passing his PhD viva! A great project on different aspects of recombinant protein production from molecular interactions to bioreactors. Big thanks to Neil Dixon and @PatriPEsteban for examining!.

Great day today at @ChemEngBham graduation - huge congratulations to Asma, who graduated with her PhD on recombinant protein production!
