Infection Biology for the 21st Century

Dave is at the Humboldt University of Berlin’s ZIBI centre this week attending the “Infection Biology for the 21st Century” conference. He’ll be presenting work done in the lab over the last few years on intragenic transcription and the toxic consequences for the cell.

The Biology and Physics of Bacterial Chromosome Organisation

This week three of the group (Dave, Rachel and Emily) were in the Netherlands to present our work at the 4th Biology and Physics of Bacterial Chromosome Organisation meeting. Emily did a fantastic job of presenting her work on intragenic transcription within horizontally acquired genes.
