Really enjoying my visit to @uniofstandrews.bsky.social ; but OMG the seagulls are MASSIVE!
A MASSIVE seagull eating from someone's plate at an outdoors pub. A MASSIVE seagull on a pub table, considering which food it should steal next from these weird humans that always make such a fuss when it wants to taste a bite.

Beauty in Grief. UK AIDS memorial quilt; Tate Modern London. 🏳️‍🌈💔
Photo of the UK AIDS memoroial quilt, showing quilts made by people to commemorate loved ones who died. Info sign of the UK AIDS MEMORIAL QUILT. "The UK AIDS Memorial Quilt is one chapter of the largest community art project in the world, representing approximately 384 people affected by HIV and AIDS in the UK. At the height of the AIDS pandemic in the late 1980s and early 1990s, US activists encouraged people to create textile panels to commemorate loved ones who had died. These individual panels were then sewn together into larger quilts. The quilts were displayed publicly to protest and raise awareness about HIV and AIDS. Reading the names on the quilts often accompanied the displays. Activist groups across the world organised their own local quilts. Each chapter of the project continues to highlight the global impact of HIV and AIDS on individuals and communities today." There is also a QR code for more info displayed, and guidance that the topics might be upsetting for viewers and that quiet rooms are available for viewers who might want to spend some time away from the gallery environment. Bird's eye view of the UK AIDS memorial quilt exhibited in Tate Modern, London.

We identified 6 species in Enterobacter, E. coli, Klebsiella, Citrobacter; multiple plasmids, different NDMs, across 7 hospitals; a combination of likely plasmid movements and small clonal outbreaks. Clearly, carbapenem resistant bacteria solidly established in the UK and here to stay...
Sankey diagram characterising the isolates selected for further analysis through long-read sequencing, including the hospital sampled from and the resolved location of blaNDM-1. In three of the isolates long-read sequenced, a blaNDM gene could not be identified, consistent with their results using short-read sequencing data.

A very belated welcome to our new MRes students at LSTM! Can't belive it's already our second cohort, feels like only yesterday where Tony Nolan, Anne Wilson and I were filling out endless forms to get the program approved... great success last year, very proud Director of Studies here ☺️
