The latest paper from the Cliffe lab is online journals.asm.org/eprint/EZMC4GP…. Congrats to @AlisonKF_9 . We set out to answer what seemed like a simple question of whether a certain type of heterochromatin (H3K27me3) is targeted to HSV-1 genomes during lytic replication. 🧵

📣🌊 We are still looking for our next C-CoMP #Postdoc Fellows (app deadline: May 1st, 2024). Please apply if you would like to work with us to study the chemicals and microbial processes that underlie the surface ocean carbon cycle. tinyurl.com/25hty8a9 #DiversityinSTEM

Too Many Labs Run Like This Derek Lowe writes about ‘a principal investigator steamrolling his own grad students and postdocs, hiding key details and pressuring everyone to get papers out no matter what misgivings they might be feeling.’ science.org/content/blog-p…

Join us this Friday at 11 AM EST for a seminar led by Dr. Adam Deutschubauer (@Deutschbauer_Lab) visiting from Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab). We are excited to hear about the approaches and tools he has developed for microbial functional genomics!🦠🧬

"How is it already 3:17PM?! I've gotten nothing done today." ** checks my calendar and realizes that I've been in Zoom meetings since 8:30AM 😬 **

Lunch time? It was a long day in the lab today 😵‍💫

Funding awarded to study "microbiome stewardship"! Drs. Kieran O'Doherty , @rob_beiko, me, Emma Allen-Vercoe, @malladapted, and Diego Silva got funding from the Canadian Institutes for Health Research on how our collective microbiomes impact health!! sueishaqlab.org/2024/04/01/fun…

An opportunity to join the Penn State community!

Some days I wish I could go back to being a postdoc so I could do cool science like this! Check out this awesome project/lab!
