Paper number seven of my PhD, newly published within @SciReports 🧪📃. In the present study we analysed the root nodule microbiome of a 30 year Alnus glutinosa chronosequence planted upon heavy metal polluted soil 🌳🦠. @MonteroCalasanz @ONEPlanetDTP @SciencesNCL @UniofNewcastle

🦠New bacterial species🦠. Paper six of my PhD and my first novel species description. Amycolatopsis ponsaeliensis, deriving it's name from the Latin name of Newcastle upon Tyne (Pons Aelius). @MonteroCalasanz @UniofNewcastle @MicrobioSoc @ONEPlanetDTP

Very happy to have published the fifth paper of my PhD, detailing the Actinorhizal-Frankiaceae symbiosis and its application in phytoremediation 🌳🦠. Many thanks to my co-authors @MonteroCalasanz David George. @ONEPlanetDTP @UniofNewcastle .@SciencesNCL.

Very happy to have submitted my PhD thesis today, would not have been possible without the support of my wonderful supervisor @MonteroCalasanz. Likewise, very pleased to have been awarded three months of post-submission funding by @UniofNewcastle to continue my doctoral research.

Great time presenting my metagenomic study of Alnus glutinosa root nodule associated bacterial communities at the 6th Annual EBNet early career researcher conference 🌳🧫🦠

Wonderful time in Prague 🇨🇿, presenting at the 7th international symposium on biosorption and biodegradation/bioremediation. Alot of interesting discussion regarding my metagenomic analysis of Alnus glutinosa root nodules from a metal polluted chronosequence 🌳🦠🧫

Very proud to have raised over £1,000 for some great charities during the fencing clubs 12 hour fence-a-thon 🤺.Thanks for all the support and donations on the day, really appreciated 🙌

I have been organising a 12 hour fence-a-thon charity event for Newcastle fencing club, any spare cash you have to donation would be really appreciated, full details in the link below 🤺👇. .

Three days at the microbiology society annual conference, had a fab time catching up with my supervisor @MonteroCalasanz, old course mates and learning way too much virology 🧪🔬.#Microbio24

First paper of 2024, detailing five Mycobacterium genomes isolated from the root nodules of Alnus glutinosa 🔬🧪.@MonteroCalasanz.@ONEPlanetDTP .@UniofNewcastle.@NorthumbriaUni.

Two papers are better than one. Thanks again to @MonteroCalasanz and @ONEPlanetDTP for your support 🧫. Draft genome sequence of Streptomyces poriferorum RTGN2, isolated from Alnus glutinosa root nodules | Microbiology Resource Announcements

First publication 👀.@MonteroCalasanz.@ONEPlanetDTP. Draft genome sequence of Amycolatopsis camponoti RTGN1, a bacterial endophyte isolated from Alnus glutinosa root nodules | Microbiology Resource Announcements

Had a great time at @inoculant_ifapa for the last two months, conducting plant trials and practicing my Spanish

Some promising growth from the plant trials I have been conducting during my placement 🍅🌱🇪🇸
