The Sychantha Lab is officially open! @UWaterloo @WaterlooChem Seeking curious minds tickled by how pathogenic bacteria tweak their surfaces to resist antibiotics and immunity, through structural biology, enzymology, & chemical biology 🧪
With salmonella steadily making headlines, @BrianKCoombes, professor and chair @BBS_McMasterU, spoke with @TheSpec about the bacteria, which he’s been studying for more than two decades. ow.ly/AopT50Qu7w1
Excited to see this work out today. Tremendous job by Ken Rachwalski and team in the Brown lab! A mobile CRISPRi collection targeting essential genes for genetic interaction studies in E. coli. cell.com/cell-reports-m…
.@StJoesHamilton congratulates Dr. Paul O'Byrne, who has been appointed as an Officer of the #OrderOfCanada for his work in expanding our understanding of #asthma and his contributions to medicine in Canada: bit.ly/48zKz8w | #HamOnt
Super honored that @lindskalan and I’s review article, "Living in Your Skin: Microbes, Molecules and Mechanisms", was highlighted as an @ASMicrobiology Top Cited paper in 2023! journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/ia…
Antibiotic resistant superbugs are a huge problem. But good news: a new class of antibiotics — the first to be discovered in decades — may be able to help. @gerryiidr at @McMasterU tells us what this breakthrough means for our health link.chtbl.com/TheBigStoryCYO…
Congratulations to newly minted Dr. @YaegerLuke on an outstanding #PhD defence! 🎉Thanks again to external @traivio for visiting us @BBS_McMasterU - was a blast! Thanks also to @JohnWhitneyIIDR @surette_m & @gerryiidr for your help!
🐜🍃 "Useful enzymes from an ant farm." 🍃🐜 IIDR member Cameron Currie talks to @cenmag about his exciting research into biodegradation enzymes found in the fungal farms of leaf-cutter ants. Link 👇 pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ce…
New from PhD candidate @YaegerLuke and friends - a fascinating dive into the connections between #folate and #peptidoglycan pathways in #Pseudomonas that inspired Luke to design a dual-function inhibitor that targets both! @McMasterIIDR @BBS_McMasterU 1/11 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
Applications are invited for the John Innes Centre – Rudjer Bošković Summer School on Applied Molecular Microbiology in Dubrovnik, Croatia between 7 – 15 September 2024. Highly recommended! Please share jic.ac.uk/training-caree…
New work shows that protein ApmA confers broad-spectrum #aminoglycoside #resistance with a molecular mechanism that diverges from canonical aminoglycoside acetyltransferases 🧩💊⤵️ @gerryiidr nature.com/articles/s4158…
A big congratulations to @eric_brown_bbs from @BBS_McMasterU on his election as a Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada. This recognition reflects a remarkable career in antibiotic drug discovery using high-throughput screening and chemical biology.
The flag on University Hall has been lowered today in recognition of #TransDayOfRemembrance, a time to honour transgender, nonbinary, Two-Spirit and gender-diverse people affected by anti-trans violence, discrimination and exclusion. dailynews.mcmaster.ca/worthmentionin…
Did you know that antimicrobial resistance is considered a global health threat? Antibiotics and similar medications are not only used to treat infections, but they also make surgeries, cancer treatments, and other life-saving medical procedures possible. #WorldAMRAwarenessWeek💊
Ep. 4🎙️ includes a discussion w/ @Dr_Lori_Burrows & @gerryiidr about the McMaster Antibiotic Access & Capacity (MAAC) Project, a collaboration between CAIC & @McMasterIIDR to explore an integrated solution designed to improve antibiotic access & capacity 🇨🇦open.spotify.com/episode/3UkKuR…
Nature continues to surprise in co-opting protein folds for AMR. nature.com/articles/s4158…
Today is #NationalPhilanthropyDay, a day to celebrate the incredible impact of generosity. Invaluable contributions from Michael DeGroote, David Braley, the Boris Family, and many other supporters empower our research and enable all that we do. #ThankYou
According to the Public Health Agency of Canada, an outbreak of extensively drug-resistant salmonella has been linked to raw pet food and contact with cattle. @BrianKCoombes, professor & chair @BBS_McMasterU, provides insight on how it may be spreading👇 ow.ly/8OyH50Q7uJO
The Hart family are incredibly loved and valued members of the @McMasterIIDR family. We are so grateful for their generous ongoing support of our students and staff. Such a wonderful, fitting tribute to the memory of Michael!

It is time to dream big again and invest in research that will become the next Blackberry, the next insulin, the next vaccine to combat future pandemics. AND to invest in the postsecondary sector that enables all of this.
We are a country of discoverers, explorers and innovators. We have a long history of research achievement, including double lung transplants, insulin, pacemakers, and stem cells. Time to invest in researchers, postdocs and grad students to build a better future for Canadians.
I am very happy to announce that I will soon be moving to the U of Manchester as a Senior Lecturer in Computational Biology & Bioinformatics. I am thankful for the opportunities U of Nottingham has given me over the last few years, but am very excited to begin this next chapter!

Canadians working on antibiotics for the future! Go @eric_brown_bbs and @Dr_Lori_Burrows @PHAC_GC @CARB_X
Investigating a novel “Trojan Horse” antibiotic, Eric Brown & Lori Burrows will characterize MLEB-22043’s mode of action and determine how bacteria may develop resistance. This funding supports the development of MLEB-22043 and informs the design of future antibacterial drugs.
Honored to be named as Canada Research Chair in Microbiome. There are too many folks to thank whose support got me there! My team and I are looking forward to this exciting next phase of our research.
Congrats to LKSIoV Members Dr. Amit Bhavsar and Dr. Wael Elhenawy on receiving a Canada Research Chair Tier 2! chairs-chaires.gc.ca/media-medias/l…
I also think it speaks to the incredibly research culture of @McMasterIIDR that I have a meeting tomorrow with my PhD supervisor (@surette_m), just last week emailed with one of my committee members (@gerryiidr), & am soon reuniting with fellow PhD's @Daphnee_Lam & @pitrack01! 😊
