On my way back from having spent a brilliant few days in Bath this week. Two talks in two days, lots of great ideas and interactions. Many thanks to @nematodegirl and @VickyHunt_Lab for looking after us!
Thanks for visiting us yesterday @PSarkies and for a fantastic talk and lots of great discussion! Look for catching up again soon! @VickyHunt_Lab
Need some help identifying a parasitic worm… found inside and on the outer surface of the intestine and stomach of a mole. Worms are clumped together, each in individuals membranes/ sacs. Anyone know what these are? @DominikaLastik @VickyHunt_Lab
Assistant Professor position - great opportunity to work at the University of Tokyo with Taisei Kikuchi u-tokyo.ac.jp/content/400227… u-tokyo.ac.jp/focus/en/jobs/
Congratulations @DominikaLastik on passing your PhD viva. So happy you’re staying on as a postdoc! Thank you to examiners @EpicFeil_ and Adrian Streit
#Strongyloides are parasitic nematode worms that are present in the intestines of millions of people globally. Find out about their infection biology and strategies for diagnosis and control in this new #PhilTransB theme issue: bit.ly/PTB1894
Are Strongyloides spp🪱the best model for studying parasitism? Definitely (in my humble opinion). How come? find out here ⬇️⬇️⬇️ royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/rs…

This year Mona Suleiman from the @UniofBath was chosen for her presentation and studies on #sRNAs in the free-living and parasitic stages of #Strongyloides. This blog embellishes upon her achievements: >> ow.ly/3A3h50LAavY
Please retweet and share. Great opportunity to join the friendly Laabei group in Bath to study a PhD in how cell wall anchored proteins contribute to complement evasion of Staph. findaphd.com/phds/project/g…
Strongyloides meeting - November 2022, UK. Come join us if you work on or are interested in working with Strongyloides parasites! Registration details available soon here: royalsociety.org/science-events…
@DominikaLastik talking about her PhD work using long read transcriptomics to investigate how specific transcript variants are associated with parasitism in Strongyloides parasites at #ICOPA2022 @VickyHunt_Lab
Mona Suleiman talking about her PhD research and representing the lab at #ICOPA2022 - wish I was there too!
Strongyloides: omics to worm-free populations. An international Strongyloides meeting on the 28th - 29th November 2022 in the UK. Save the date, details to follow soon.
