More £££ is now available to study the interplay between evolution and horizontal gene transfer in the emergence of novel symbiotic strains. 🚨Closes 8th march 🚨 go to to find out more about the lab and get in touch.
🚨Funded PhD! Plasmid transfer can 'instantly' create new rhizobial symbionts. But can it really be that simple? Come explore the interplay between horizontal gene transfer and evolution in symbiont evolution with me and @Chomicki_G

HGT is not a bacterial process! It's a product of interactions between bacteria and all the inhabitants of the genetic ecosystem ❤️🦠👇 lovely perspective from @MicroTanya @Vicki_TR_Orr @jpjhall.

this was published after we wrote it but a beautify and excellent resource showing how academia is failing black academics in particular.

We present the lived experience of women of colour discussing how these different experiences have lead to different barriers for each, from the financial pain of immigration to the alienation of those outside the white, middle-class culture of academia.

Strategies which aim to target everyone unified only by skin colour can result in some of the major challenges being faced.

academics from minoritized ethnicities sit at a complicated intersection of many identities - particularly race, immigration status, community, class, religion, not to mention intersections with gender, sexuality, disability etc.

Are the 'pillars of ED&I' like '#BAME' limiting our approach to achieving equity for #academicsofcolour? We argue that it is the intersectional spaces that shape/limit careers. #THEcampus #BlackinSTEM #EquityinSTEM #MinoritiesInSTEM #DiversityandInclusion.
