All things bacteria, phage and other viruses. Biology to biotechnology.
I actually enjoy teaching too!
Hobbies? what are those?

Microbes are crucial to our planet and well-being but go unnoticed. They provide food, medicines, clean water & help with climate change. The International Microbiology Literacy Initiative (IMiLI) aims to educate society about the importance of microbes: doi.org/10.1111/1751-7…

Personalized or one-size-fits-all: the phage therapy field's favorite binary. Or is it a spectrum? Excited to share our new Journal of Clinical Investigation review, a team effort spanning Stanford University, Mayo Clinic, KU Leuven & QAMH, driven forward by the incredible Kevin Minyoung Kim! 🧵 /1
