As @microbiologysociety.org #microbio26 wraps up, I can't believe this was my 3rd time presenting at this conference. Thanks to the society letting me present my latest work & for wonderful questions. This paper on impact genome rearrangement has on virulence & #AMR will be coming later this year 👀

Not all #Salmonella equal in terms of infection risk! By combining population #genomics & global datasets, we identify lineage-specific markers linked to human infection - including a conserved prophage in S. Agona🦠 This highlights the potential for genomics-informed risk prediction in food safety

Langridge Lab @langridgelab.bsky.social · 31/03/2026

Excited to share our latest preprint! Food surveillance detects lots of #Salmonella but only some cause disease. Using large-scale #genomics, we show that risk: - clusters at the lineage level, driven by mobile genetic elements - markers can be IDed including a phage in Agona - can be predicted
