EASTBIO: Prediction of capsule type to improve efficacy of phage cocktails for eradication of multi-drug resistant Escherichia coli from the gastrointestinal tract of colonised livestock species
Escherichia coli is ubiquitously found in the gastrointestinal tract of healthy animals but is also responsible for a diverse range of intestinal and extraintestinal infections both in animals and humans. Read more
Enhancing Food Safety: Volatile Organic Compound-Based Early Detection of zoonotic pathogens in Leafy Greens
The project focuses on addressing the rise of foodborne illnesses linked to ready-to-eat salads, particularly caused by zoonotic pathogens like Shiga toxin-producing E. Read more
Gut Reactions and Ground Rules: The Microbial and Environmental Drivers of Zoonotic Hookworm Hatching
Zoonotic hookworm infections, caused by parasites such as Ancylostoma brasiliense, Ancylostoma caninum, and Uncinaria stenocephala, pose a significant health threat to humans, primarily transmitted from companion animals like cats and dogs. Read more

Dynamics of Multispecies Interactions within Polymicrobial Infections: A one Health Perspective
Polymicrobial infections are shaped by the complex interactions between pathogens and commensals across diverse environments in humans, animals, and the broader ecosystem. Read more
From bacterial competition to global warming: why do bacteria form clay microaggregates and how does this influence the soil carbon cycle? (S3.5-MPS-Durham)
Microorganisms in the soil break down plant matter and recycle to back into the atmosphere as carbon dioxide and into new biomass. Read more
