#PLOSBiology: #VorholtLab uses #FluidFM to inject Salmonella into enteroid cells, disentangling pathogen-host cell interactions in the cytosol, uncoupled from earlier infection stages. Explore these groundbreaking findings. ETH Zürich Microbiology_ETH dx.plos.org/10.1371/journa…

Huge congratulations to Julia Vorholt on her election to the National Academy of Sciences National Academy of Sciences !! nasonline.org/news-and-multi…

The Vorholt & Hardt labs Microbiology_ETH & Sellin Lab use FluidFM to study Salmonella in intestinal epithelial cells. Find out what happens if you inject bacteria directly into the cells’ cytosol. D-BIOL news: biol.ethz.ch/en/news-and-ev… To the paper: dx.plos.org/10.1371/journa…

Thrilled to share our work on commensal-mediated Samonella competition in the inflammed gut! Very grateful for the help of my brillant colleagues at the Hardt group D-BIOL @ ETH Zurich and the support we got from the Swiss National Science Foundation, NCCR Microbiomes & EMBO journals.plos.org/plosbiology/ar…

Are you a school class curious about our biology research and teaching at ETH? Come visit us! Recently, students from Stiftsschule Einsiedeln got an inside look at cutting-edge cancer research, our biology program and the Hönggerberg campus. #FutureScientists #ScienceEducation
