Congratulations to Dr Rebecca Corrigan for the successful renewal of her Sir Henry Dale Fellowship for an additional 3 years. She hopes her project entitled "Dissecting the role of (p)ppGpp in S. aureus stress survival" will help us understand more about how bacteria can overcome antibiotic treatments.

Rebecca is a molecular microbiologist interested in the study of the cell-signalling and virulence mechanisms of the Gram-positive pathogen Staphylococcus aureus. Her recent work has led to the development of a genome-wide approach to analyse nucleotide-protein interactions. Rebecca aims to use this methodology, in conjunction with biochemical assays, to identify binding targets for (p)ppGpp, nucleotides that are involved in promoting persistent and recurrent infections. The mapping of the (p)ppGpp signalling network will provide a greater understanding of how S. aureus can persist in the human host, enabling rational drug design.

I am so happy that I started to enter this fellowship. I have heard lots of great things about you, and I was able to confirm all of them. I wish to be able to go and do great things under your care. I am nothing but a lost lamb, but that is still something that I can change as long as I try harder in life. I will do whatever I can to make it back to where I need to be.
