  • MetalloBio is pleased to announce the establishment of our Scientific Advisory Group, a distinguished panel of experts brought together to guide us in addressing pressing challenges and advancing innovative solutions. The Scientific Advisory Group is composed of leading specialists who have a staggering wealth of scientific and industry experience. Comprised of Dr Michael Murray, RTTP, Professor Jim Thomas, Dr Edward Littler, Dr Samantha McLean, Dr Stuart Bond, Dr John F. Tomayko, Dr Lloyd Czaplewski and Dr Stephen Hawser. The Scientific Advisory Groups collective expertise will be pivotal in providing recommendations to inform our strategies and decisions as we prepare to advance the pipeline to clinical trials. We are honored to welcome this esteemed cohort to our advisory team, and we look forward to their invaluable contributions as we work to change the face of bacterial infection treatment. This initiative underscores our commitment to innovation and represents a significant milestone in our journey to the market.  For more information please see the full article: https://lnkd.in/ekmUph4J

  • Professional Internships for PhD students (PIPS) provide students with immersive experience in a field they are inexperienced in. These experiences provide awareness of the wider applications of research and diversify their own portfolio. MetalloBio are offering select positions for BBSRC PhD students to come and gain experience working alongside our team at the forefront of our research, where the science meets the market. As an antimicrobial development company working on two series of completely novel types of antibacterial compounds, these positions may provide suitable candidates with exciting alternative work. There are two positions available for application: both involve conducting primary research into the existing product market to understand the relevant design criteria and establish a point of market comparison. The first project then requires the use of industry relevant techniques to gather data which will be used to directly influence the product design criteria for MetalloBio’s antimicrobial coatings. The second project is aimed at using the gathered data to recognise and understand the needs of the market, to inform the product development. Both projects require the ability to conduct methodical research, experience conducting literature reviews, communication and presentation skills and the ability to disseminate complex scientific research to a non-scientific audience. If anyone is interested in these positions or requires any more information please don’t not hesitate to direct interest or questions towards michael.murray@metallobio.com .

    We wish to extend our congratulations to one of our scientific collaborators, Dr Adam Varney, on his being awarded both a Flexible Talent Mobility Account (FTMA) Award and the National Biofilms Innovation Centre grant (NBIC). Our collaboration with Dr Varney began as he completed his PhD, within which he examined the impact MetalloBio's compounds had on a range of bacteria. He is currently working as a Senior Research Fellow in the Medical Technologies Innovation Facility (MTIF) at Nottingham Trent University (NTU), where his work into developing novel anti-biofilm catheter coatings in collaboration with MetalloBio is the focus of these latest accolades.  The FTMA grant aims to support interdisciplinary knowledge exchange within the biosciences in order to support partnerships between academics and their public or private sector counterparts. Dr Varney securing this grant allows for continued research into the medical applications of MetalloBio’s compounds, which ultimately may help reduce the prevalence of hospital acquired infections; a UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) priority research area.  The NBIC grant is awarded to those who are undertaking projects aimed at improving the understanding of or providing solutions to the subsequent challenges that Biofilms present. To receive this grant Dr Varney’s project proposal underwent assessment by a pool of independent reviewers, against a number of strict criteria which included; the quality of the collaboration, the level of innovation and the potential future applications.  With both of these grant projects now in progress, we wish to reiterate our congratulations to Dr Varney on securing the funding, and our enthusiasm for continuing such a productive and effective collaboration. #AMR #Untreatbleinfections #AntimicrobialResistance #Medicine #Innovation #GlobalHealth
