How can we use genomics to help guide new vaccines and control strategies for #klebsiella? Check out this article to see how we are contributing- for me it's undoubtedly one of the most rewarding things we do! With @DrKatHolt

Imagine carrying a baby to term only to lose it within four weeks to a severe bloodstream infection. Every year, 1 million newborns (est) die of neonatal sepsis. The most common cause is Klebsiella pneumoniae bacteria, which also afflict countless elderly and

(1/6) Our new short preprint, led by @helena_bethanyy and myself on incidental bacterial domestication between patient isolation and creation of frozen stock. Geno/phenotype changes are obscured by rich media and more prevalent than we previously thought https://t.co/7etwZKvE4V

Really important data on determinants of hypervirulence in #klebsiella from Tom Russo and colleagues: https://t.co/lQdkMak1Xu Highlights complexity of the hv pathotype and shows the impact of aerobactin varies by strain. Check out our commentary below. @KlebClub
Comment from @KelWyres and myself on new experimental data (from Tom Russo and colleagues) and how we define #hypervirulent #Klebsiella pneumoniae genetically across diverse lineages. https://t.co/z4pIv4UwV9
