📢 We're hiring! Looking for a postdoc in bioinformatics/data analysis to join our team at Ramón y Cajal University Hospital, Madrid. 🧬 Focus: microbiome, diagnostics, and advanced therapies. More info: t.ly/QQuD2 📅 Deadline: January 31st, 2025. Please share!

2/ Bioinformatics sits at the intersection of biology, computer science, and statistics. It’s about understanding biology through data, not just crunching numbers or running software.

Today we report that an engineered skin bacterium, swabbed gently on the head of a mouse, can unleash a potent antibody response against a pathogen. Could lead to topical vaccines that are applied in a cream. Djenet Bousbaine led the charge... nature 1/55
