Move over Bruce Springsteen and Tony Soprano, New Jersey has a new boss and it's name is Streptomyces griseus: the-scientist.com/news-opinion/n…

I look forward to working with my fellow faculty colleagues, staff and upper administration to help our Department grow in both numbers and in stature.

Interesting new study in Cell. A large number of the products of these "small novel genes" look to be RiPPs.

Proud to be an alum of the @Christiansonlab.

Interesting study from Gerry Wright and colleagues on the ancient, evolutionary relationship between glycopeptide antibiotic biosynthesis and resistance in Actinobacteria.. labroots.com/trending/micro…

Awesome work from my colleague Bill Metcalf and his former postdocs Emily Parkinson Laboratory, and with Annette, Andrew, and Kou-San.

I am graced by the presence of our newest Associate Professors. Congratulations to both!!

Awesome work for the Piel lab on the characterization of two #RiPPs from cultivatable organisms and from a metagenome.

Great new review article from the Moore lab on methods for heterologous expression of microbial natural products.
