Just one more sleep until Santa! And then, the answer to the big question...have you been naughty or nice this year? (With microbes, it's not always so easy to tell...)

This study rings true with our observations in teaching science research to primary and high school students over the past year...it wasn't at what we expected but it really does seem that 'stretching' teaching makes the biggest difference in the younger students, & it's a joy.

@UTS_Science PhD student @d_bouzo and his mentors @nural_c and @ProfLizHarry are investigating the use of honey to combat the ever rising antibiotic resistant bacteria we are now facing, such as MRSA. Listen to Dans insightful interview on 2SER here: 2ser.com/using-manuka-h…
Common yet crucial misunderstanding: Bacteria under threat from antibiotics don’t change by acquiring the trait of antibiotic resistance, thereby “outsmarting” us. Instead, what happens is that →→→ ow.ly/IHVA30h7vEv #superbugs
And almost every time we watch a child look down our awesome fluorescence microscope for the first time we hear them exclaim a variation of "Wow! It's like looking at the stars!" It's the amazement of recognising the scale (on either side) of the world around you.

Thanks to all the wonderful Ts we have met over the last three weeks through our Microbiology in Schools workshop - such enthusiasm for your science! That's it for our 2017 run but we'll be back in 2018 with more workshops starting in Feb, incl. Depth Studies. Happy holidays ☺
New antibiotic found, only produced when two species are co-cultured. Slava Epstein was right, we have to rethink the idea that there are no more antibiotics to find, and instead change the way we search for them.
