13.01.2022 Our team sheds some lights on the relationship between Chlamydia sequence types and disease in Australian livestock! Highlights Molecular typing reveals a link between Chlamydia pecorum strains and disease. ST23 ‘pathotype’ was found in association with diseases in sheep and cattle.... Rectal and vaginal strains clustered into a separate ‘non-pathotypic’ group. http://www.sciencedirect.com//article/pii/S0378113514003940

07.01.2022 A new anti-chlamydial vaccine formulation for koalas utilising a one-shot, longer lasting adjuvant is described by our group in the following paper. This provides an important alternative to the previous three-dose formulation, which would prove logistically difficult when being administered to wild koalas. http://www.sciencedirect.com//article/pii/S0264410X14011608
