We determined gene essentiality in 13 Enterobacteriaceae including E. coli, Salmonella and Klebsiella strains, and find ~1/3 of the essential genome is variable -- but! there's no evidence for genus-specific essential genes, implying rapid turnover journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128…

It was great fun discussing the past, present and future of our most important construction material, concrete, with @mrimafidon and Cyrille Dunant. Thank you @QEPrize for the invite. I hope everyone finds it informative.
Concrete is the world's second most-used material, but how can we make it greener? 🌍 @mrimafidon is joined by Professor @KevPaine, Director of @CaerBath at @uniofbath, and Dr Cyrille Dunant, Principal Research Associate at @Cambridge_Uni to learn more. 🎧 buff.ly/3YIkn9T
