The benefits of antibiotics to both human and animal health are undisputed. However, as microbes have become increasingly resistant to antimicrobials and other drugs, scientists have become interested in new solutions to the growing superbug crisis, including the use of defensive microbes and faecal transplants. In new research, Oxford University scientists have developed a lab-based approach, creating positive co-dependent relationships between hosts and bacteria, termed ‘mutualisms’, quickly. These lab-developed bacterial relationships demonstrate how microbes can work with their hosts to prevent infection.
Oxford Immunology Group
The Oxford Immunology Group (OIG) is a regional branch of the British Society for Immunology (BSI). The aim is to connect students, postdocs, early-career researchers, and faculty with an interest in immunology. Within this group, we host the Science in Progress (SIP) talks once every two months and allow for the exchange of reagents, ideas and techniques across institutes and departments in Oxford.
