Imagine bacteria mining cryptocurrencies. We moved a step closer by encoding a 2-bit MD5 cryptographic hash algorithm – a precursor of SH256 used for Bitcoin - across 66 E. coli strains. It required over 1 megabase of DNA, the size of a small genome. nature.com/articles/s4158…

Very happy to share we were awarded the SNSF Starting Grant 2024 for our PACMAN project on phage-antibiotics combination to mitigate antibiotic resistance...stay tuned for open positions (and cool science) ! 🥳🍾

More cool science to come in the Goemans Lab! 🦠🤩

Ever wonder how many bacteria live in your gut? EMBL researchers have created a machine-learning model to estimate the density of microbes in faeces and used it to show that microbial load can strongly influence disease-microbe associations. embl.org/news/science-t…

Over the moon to be named among the #50ScientistsThatInspire across diverse fields by Cell! A heartfelt thank you to my former and current lab members, mentors, collaborators, and friends—you are my daily inspiration! cell.com/news-do/50-ins…

Pleased to announce that our latest paper is published in Cell! We developed a novel ML model that predicts fecal microbial load from relative species profiles, revealing it as a key factor shaping gut microbiome variation and disease-microbe associations sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Excited to share our paper in Trends in Microbiology This piece is not about microbes but about very critical aspects of academia: “From advisors to mentors: fostering supportive mentorship in academia” sciencedirect.com/science/articl… #mentoring #phdlife #AcademicChatter

What makes a good mentor? What are the consequences of poor mentorship? How can we effectively foster supportive mentorship? Hamed Azarbad (Hamed Azarbad) & team reflect on these questions & offer helpful directions in this Scientific Life piece: tinyurl.com/msp38z9k

Volvo posted a 3 min and 46 second ad on Instagram, shot by Hoyte Van Hoytema, the cinematographer of Interstellar and Oppenheimer. It goes against every single rule you can think about as a social lead. Length. Format. Over-produced. Every comment under the ad said it

Celebrating 50 years of Indo-German S&T co-operation at German Embassy. Chuffed to be in a panel moderated by Dr Philipp Ackermann and talk about my transition as phd student at Uni Heidelberg to associate professor. Great discussion, thoroughly enjoyed.

Bactericidal antibiotics release DNA that activates TLR9, while static antibiotics do not. Can profoundly impact treatment outcome. Should clinicians consider this when choosing antibiotics? Amazing work by Julia Gross and collaboration with Iain Fraser! nature.com/articles/s4146…

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

Huge congratulations, Sarela!👏 Wishing you the very best as you launch your new lab in Jena. I'm excited to see the cool research your group will undoubtedly produce!

Excited to share our paper published in Current Biology that explores the consequences of having multiple genomes in a bacterial model system and it’s benefits in a multidrug environment cell.com/current-biolog…
