New preprint from the lab: Microbial interactions affect the tempo and mode of antibiotic resistance evolution. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Excited to present my latest work today at #nacarb2024 in Ascona!

Inspiring essay by Roberto Kolter. This should be taught before university: knowing how to ask the right questions, the ones we're interested in, not just those for a 'good' paper. This makes a good researcher, IMO. journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/jb…

The lab is recruiting (postdoc level) 👇 Join us: we love good science and there is a great team spirit 💫 clavel.ukaachen.de; ukaachen.de/stellenangebot…

Today in Science Magazine, we report how a bacteria has evolved into a major human pathogen over the last 200 years. Read on, this is going to be an adventurous ride 1/n! science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Do you want to run a microbial GWAS but are put off by installing a dozen different bioinformatic tools, are unsure about best practices, and how to transform the list of threshold passing variants into a neat annotated table? Then we have just the thing for you!

I was asked by NatureStructMolBiol to write a commentary on the future of structural biology which I am unsure about. I wrote about collaborative research instead. It is not open access but it can be read via this link rdcu.be/dNOLS

New review out in Science Magazine from Jacob Wilde and Kevin Foster, that I had the honor to meddle in as the resident immunologist. What possibilities do hosts have to influence their microbiomes? May contain pandas... Enjoy! science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Exciting news! @HausmannAnnika will be joining the Mucosal immunology team ETH Zürich in November as a junior group leader to establish a group working in microbiota-epithelial crosstalk. Fully funded PhD position available! Please RT jobs.ethz.ch/job/view/JOPG_…

We are excited to share our new study led by @SarSarela (now GL ITQB NOVA) & Michael Kuhn! By comparing the effects of 30 drugs on a 32-species synthetic community and community members in isolation, communal behaviors emerged in 26% of all cases! Link: cell.com/cell/fulltext/…

🚨🔬Excited to share our new paper now out in Nature Microbiology! Using Tn-seq + live imaging in engineered airway organoids, we explored the fitness tradeoffs P. aeruginosa faces while growing and surviving antibiotic treatment on the mucosal surface. 🔗 rdcu.be/dX4RR
