Still one of my favourite moments! Loved meeting these two. And has anyone noticed the other link between Detectorists and Digging for Britain?
Just time before my talk at the National Gallery of Ireland to admire one of the greatest works of art ever made. I love the idea that Caravaggio is himself holding the lamp.
Some exciting news - after almost 16 years to the day, it’s time to say farewell to the UK!! The Corrigan lab is moving to @UCDMedicine in Dublin! I will miss my wonderful colleagues @MM_Sheffield an awful lot, but we’ll be sure to keep all those cool collaborations going!
MSE seminar this Friday: "What microbes can tell us about the built environment", presented by Dr. Davida Smyth, PhD. @ProfSmyth Jul 26, 2024 12:00 PM Eastern Daylight Time Info and registration can be found here: sueishaqlab.org/2024/07/22/mse…
Warning: there is a scam on Facebook and something called Medical Blog describing a product called ‘Bloodguard’ with my name attached. This has nothing to do with me and is a scam- Meta have been informed. Vulnerable people are falling for it. Please retweet.
I am so delighted to see my paper out in the world! We show that S. aureus drives glycolysis, limiting the pentose phosphate pathway to inhibit neutrophil function and facilitate its intracellular survival. Many thanks to my supervisor @McLoughlin_Lab & to my amazing Co authors!

The team are Simon Foster (@foster_lab), Rebecca Corrigan (@corrigar1) and Jeff Green from @MM_Sheffield, Jamie Hobbs (@Sheffield_AFM) from our Dept. of Physics and Astronomy, Ethan Garner (@fleshball) from Harvard MCB and Ros Allen from @microverse_exc. Congratulations all!
Incredible news from @MM_Sheffield! An international team led by @foster_lab has been awarded £5.7M by the @wellcometrust to investigate how high-level resistant MRSA arises, aiming to gain new insights into the mechanisms that underpin bacterial life and antibiotic resistance
Honoured to receive this award for excellence in research supervision @tcddublin a job that has been made easy by the fantastic PhD students I have had the privilege to supervise @tcdbi
The organising team @StaphGBI2023 chose @Dora_Bonini for a presentation prize @JOG_Lab_Galway @ProfRuthMassey @SeanaDuggan #StaphGBI2023

Has a great few days @StaphGBI2023 in beautiful @uniofgalway discussing all things #staph thank you to hosts @JOG_Lab_Galway. Great representation from the lab and icing on the cake was Sean Cahill winning best poster prize!!
Great scientist. Nice to see Sheffield well represented!
We're hiring for the Joseph W Bigger Chair of Clinical Microbiology/ Consultant Microbiologist post in @tcddublin @TrinityMed1. The post's main base is in the dept of Clinical Microbiology which is located at St James’s Hospital. Info and apply at jobs.tcd.ie by 19/7
Magnificent.
Had a great time at the @dublinmarathon today and a nice write up in the @IrishTimes. Thanks @sarahburnss_ irishtimes.com/ireland/dublin…
Great to have taken part in the #MiningMicrobiome22 conference hosted by @MicrobioSoc @tcddublin. Interesting perspective to see how various microbiomes can be studied for health and environmental problems. Check out @TCD_HostMicrobe posters!
