Had a wonderful opportunity last week to present my research to the wider Biosciences community at the Year 3 Postgraduate symposium. It was very interesting to see the breadth of research taking place by my peers in different Biosciences research clusters. @sheffielduni.bsky.social

A wonderful time at the Generation Research symposium 2026, where we got to witness a wide breadth of interesting science happening across institutions, as performed by summer placement students.

The tradition of naming phage systems after ancient deities has the side effect that one cannot evade them even outside of microbiology journals... 🧬🛡☕️

It has been an enriching week of bacteriophage based talks, posters and discussions at Viruses of Microbes 2026. This 5-day conference gave me a lot to think about, both in the context of my current PhD project, as well as the future of this field (which is looking very bright quite frankly!).

Had a wonderful time at Microbiology Society Annual Conference 2026 held in Belfast this year. It was eye opening to interact with researchers from a variety of disciplines. Lots of talks on cancer biology, Eukaryotic viruses, AMR, implementation of AI in drug discovery and phage biology.

Grateful to have been given the opportunity to present my research on how Enterococcal Polysaccharide Antigen (EPA) plays an essential role in phage surface recognition on the Enterococcal cell surface envelope.

I’m very glad to have presented my work on the role of Enterococcal Polysaccharide Antigen (EPA) as a cell surface recognition epitope for Enterococcal phages at Viruses of Microbes (VoM) UK conference this past week.
