📈 Reported cases of non-typhoidal Salmonella in England rose by 17% — from 8,872 in 2023 to 10,388 in 2024.
Main culprits are S. Enteritidis (up 17%) and S. Typhimurium (up 15%), the most common reported serovars

Did you know E. coli has 525 adhesin genes across 102 systems?
That “sticky” secret is what makes it so dangerous, from UTIs to foodborne outbreaks.

We want to explore the metabolic interactions among gut bacteria, when the human host eats different foods - maybe this explain partly the Enterosignature structure?
