PoST Shots 2018: You are what you eat
Thanik Lertcharnrit (Department of Archeology, Silpakorn University)
It is taken for granted that ancient people relied primarily on local food sources. Also, it is hypothesized that in hierarchical societies, people of different social status might have access to differentiated diets; higher ranking persons would have been able to afford more exotic, non-local, prestige foods than common or lower-class populations. In this talk, I will illuminate how analysing stable isotopes helps prove those assumptions.
PoST Shots 2018: Numbers
Sir Nick White (MORU, University of Oxford)
How many microorganisms are in you, your infection and the world? We will equip you with a knowledge toolbox of how tiny unseen germs are the steam train of life.
PoST 2017: Applied Proteomics: A Short Story of Cake and Urine
Markus Winterberg (Head of Pharmacology Lab, MORU)
The talk will explain how to look for biomarkers for a tropical disease in urine using proteomics and mass spectrometry – using cake!
PoST 2017: Bac Chat
Matt Robinson (Molecular Microbiologist, LOMWRU)
To find the best (and worst) things in life we use our senses to see, feel, smell, taste and hear, and we'll tell our friends about it. But how do bacterial pathogens find the best places? How do they tell their mates? We will delve deep into the bacteria to find out how they sense and respond to their environments, and see how we can use this to investigate and treat human infections.
PoST 2017: Antibiotic Footprint in Thailand
