I highly recommend all @EWOC meetings #chemtwitter

Julius Adler was an iconiclast and a pioneer in understanding how bacteria respond to chemotactic signals. If you share his curiosity about #bacteria and his delight in their behavior, check out this fantastic video: youtube.com/watch?v=7_AYlr… (turn on the sound up) #chemotaxis

Just updated!

We updated our massive database of funding opportunities for POSTDOC fellowships.

Each entry (316!), we provide the $ amount, deadline, eligibility criteria, description, and link to funder.

Just heard a beautiful presentation on this research from Meilin Zhu in Blainey Lab and Doug Kwon suggesting that lipid metabolism can be exploited to promote the growth of species that suppress bacterial vaginosis #WomensHealth

The ONO PHARMA FOUNDATION sponsors a terrific series of Webinars in #chembio and this upcoming one will be excellent. Please retweet to get the word out.

Congratulations on this tour de force analysis of oligosaccharide-degrading enzymes from a key commensal. What a great way to signal that your group is thriving.

First pre-print from the lab!

I’m looking forward to seeing all of the new creative work that comes out of your group. We Kiessling Group congratulate you!

Alex is a great host to talk with about #chembio #glycotime and how thinking about natural products led to a curiosity about carbohydrate function.

Been waiting years for this. Thanks for getting it done!

Thrilled that #ACSSpring2024 Council voted to approve BIOL ACS Biological ChemBio and Chemical Biochem 's name change request to *Biochemistry and Chemical Biology*! 90% of BIOL members voted that this better represents them & we hope to provide a home for even more scientists
American Chemical Society - More soon!

A fascinating read and thread that highlights an unexpected interplay of antibiotics and mucus secretion. And since mucus is made of highly glycosylated proteins, tagging this excellent thread #glycotime

This was a great session. Thanks for sharing your cool research on understanding and decoding the structures of glycans!

Headed to New Orleans for #ACSSpring2024 ? Be sure to catch presentations from our group: Valerie will be presenting on Sunday at 3:55 PM and Victoria Marando and Laura Kiessling on Tuesday at 12:55 and 2:10 PM

Great to celebrate this line up on #International_Womens_Day #glycotime

Such a well deserved honor for my amazing colleague. She is helping us see into the organization of cells in the brain and in modifying RNA to increase protein production!

Congratulations to Xiao Wang, who has been named a 2024 Sloan Research Fellow by Sloan Foundation! Fellows are chosen in recognition of their creativity, innovation, and research accomplishments.

I had so much fun talking with Alex Moloney (back of the napkin podcast) about chemical biology, research, and the upcoming Women in CARB symposium ACS_CARB at the American Chemical Society meeting. The @ACS_CARB lineup has some cool glycoscience! #glycotime
