After a great morning at the GMC I spent a lovely few hours exploring Glasgow this afternoon (in the ☀️ too!!). Thanks again to the organisers of #GlasgowMicro22 for inviting me and organising such a great meeting!

BLOG - "Without good antibiotics, there are many fundamental aspects of modern medicine that won’t be possible, not just treating infections. It’s vital that we find new antibiotics that have activity against drug-resistant microorganisms" - @r_devine93 okt.to/Sg2xBj
This summer school was one of the best things I did during my PhD. Great science, awesome people and a beautiful place - what more could you want?! #naturalproducts #phdlife
SUMMER SCHOOL - Applications are now open for the 2022 Summer School in Applied Molecular Microbiology on Microbial Specialised Metabolites - taking place in Dubrovnik, 10-17 September 2022 📅 - Friday 18 February okt.to/SLw7sC

BLOG - Antibiotic-producing bacteria can be found in lots of places, like deserts, oceans and even in association with some insects. We like to look in under-explored environments to find new strains of Streptomyces that make new antibiotics... okt.to/CmpDHB @r_devine93

Featured article from the @MattHutchings10 lab at @JohnInnesCentre describes refactoring the #formicamycin #biosynthetic #gene cluster to make high-level producing strains and new molecules for the development of #antibacterial compounds dlvr.it/Rxlfgv

This is awesome! They made a video about our research! 😃 #scicomm #ANTibiotics
new bioZone video 'Harnessing the power of bacterial factories' by @DanteDepot 💊 inspired by recent research from @r_devine93 @MattHutchings10 @barriewilksjic on rewiring biosynthetic gene clusters in the bacteria Streptomyces formicae 👇 youtu.be/Oi_lhrZVR7c #scicomm

It was great talking to the students about ANTibiotics 🐜💊 this morning and sharing some of my career steps so far. 👩‍🔬 Thanks for having me! 😀
We were very lucky to have @r_devine93 from @MattHutchings10 lab present to our microbiology final year undergrads this morning. Your talk was awesome - Thank you Rebecca!

Great range of talks at the @MicrobioSoc Fleming Showcase so far. Although I’m not looking forward to watching my own pre-recorded talk later!! 😖 #WhyMicrobiologistsMatter
"Today we are going to celebrate the legacy of Fleming Prize winners. We will get a glimpse of the future from seven microbiologists who will present their theses over the next few days.” Society President, @Armitage_Judy introduces the #FlemingShowcase #WhyMicrobiologistsMatter

Love the message from @UKRI_CEO that science is more than just a “boffin” in the lab. Everyone that makes science happen is important, no matter what their role. In order for science to benefit everyone, it needs to be accessible for everyone #caselecture20
A strong impact between science and society is crucial for creating an optimistic and positive view of R&D in meeting future challenges @UKRI_CEO #caselecture20
