Researchers at VIB-KU Leuven Center for Microbiology and VIB-KU Leuven Center for Brain & Disease Research revealed the relationship between #ProteinAggregation and #BacterialDormancy, states during which bacteria are not susceptible to #antibiotics. 🧫 flanders.bio/news/new-study…

🔬 New research by Jan Michiels @LiselotDW Celien Bollen and colleagues (VIB-KU Leuven Center for Microbiology) in Nature Communications shows how protein 'clumps' drive bacteria into a state of dormancy, with implications for antibiotic resistance. 👉 Read here vibbio.tech/4jx0JFY FWO KU Leuven

🌊 Marine microbes manage to not only capture carbon from the atmosphere but also integrate this carbon into stable, persistent molecules. New PI Sammy Pontrelli joined our center to unravel the secrets of those microbes. 🤩 Read more: prez.ly/xCcd
