当我开始我的本科研究项目时，我的导师安东尼·克拉克教授递给我一叠论文，其中涵盖了细菌细胞壁生理学的一些最伟大的成就。其中包括Terry Beveridge教授的一些论文，这些论文以惊人的细节展示了革兰氏阴性菌和革兰氏阳性菌细胞被膜的性质（Bernadsky et al. 1994; Matias et al. 2003; Matias and Beveridge 2005）。我记得自己当时很惊讶，竟然可以如此详细地观察这些非凡的细胞区室，也很着迷于像青霉素这样简单的分子可以对它们造成如此大的破坏。我的研究生工作集中在肽聚糖的修饰上，这是特里的工作中非常精彩地描述的细胞包膜的应力承载组件。在Clarke实验室和圭尔夫大学分子和细胞生物学系其他人员的支持下，我们能够解开肽聚糖O-乙酰化的分子基础（Moynihan和Clarke 2010，2014 a，2014 B）。这是最终导致我获得贝弗里奇海报奖之一的工作。在我参加的第一次加拿大微生物学家协会（CSM）会议上，我记得当时CSM主席评论说，“重要的是，[CSM]不是一个微生物学协会，而是一个微生物学家协会”。这一重要的区别是证明了社会的努力，以促进和帮助其初级成员，我相信特里全心全意地支持。通过年度会议上的口头和海报比赛，该协会能够展示加拿大年轻微生物学家所进行的技能，想法和工作的难以置信的多样性。
When I started my undergraduate research project I was handed a stack of papers by my supervisor, Professor Anthony Clarke, which covered some of the greatest hits of bacterial cell wall physiology. Included among them were some of Professor Terry Beveridge’s papers showing in spectacular detail the nature of the cell envelope of Gram-negative and-positive bacteria (Bernadsky et al. 1994; Matias et al. 2003; Matias and Beveridge 2005). I recall being astonished that it was possible to see these remarkable cellular compartments in such detail and was fascinated that a simple molecule like penicillin could do so much damage to them. My graduate work focused on the modification of peptidoglycan, the stress-bearing component of the cell envelope so wonderfully depicted in Terry’s work. With the support of the Clarke laboratory and the rest of the Department of Molecular and Cellular Biology at the University of Guelph, we were able to untangle the molecular basis for peptidoglycan O-acetylation (Moynihan and Clarke 2010, 2014 a, 2014 b). This was the work which ultimately led to me receiving one of the inaugural Beveridge poster awards.At one of the first Canadian Society of Microbiologists (CSM) conferences I attended, I recall the president of the CSM at the time commenting that it was “important that rather than being a society for microbiology,[the CSM] was a society for microbiologists”. This important distinction is borne out in the society’s efforts to promote and help its junior members, something I believe Terry whole-heartedly supported. Through the oral and poster competitions at the annual conferences, the society is able to showcase the incredible diversity of skill, ideas, and work being conducted by young Canadian microbiologists.
