Out now in PNASNews we used Tn-seq to identify genetic interactions with EF-P in B. subtilis. We found that 1) the ABCF YfmR (Uup) is required in absence of EF-P in some conditions pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…

Interesting new paper (and cover article!!) in Proc B from Matthew Zipple 🇺🇦 and Caleb Vogt from our mouse enclosures. Genetically identical male mice show distinct social/spatial behavior depending on social context. Interesting implications for thinking about alt. repro. tactics

Abstracts are due soon for Psyringae2024!

My first grad students Vivianna Sanchez and Katie Herr!
