上村直輝さん（基盤理工学専攻博士後期１年）が国際会議 BLAST XVIII で Microbiology Awardを受賞 uec.ac.jp/news/prize/202…

中根研の上村くんが国際会議BLAST XVIII において、Microbiology Award for an Outstanding Poster Presentationを受賞しました。博士のポスター発表で2位がもらえるのだそうです。 評価してくださったみなさま、ありがとうございます。

Congratulations to Naoki Uemura for winning the Microbiology Outstanding Poster Presentation Prize at BLAST Meetings for their presentation on "Rapid water flow navigates long-distance migration of thermophilic bacteria". #BlastMeeting2025

Bacteria with a twist!🚀 Our latest study on bioRxiv reveals how bacteria squeeze through super tight passages by flagellar wrapping like a screw thread! This unique motility could be the key to navigating confined spaces in nature. #Microbiology #Symbiont doi.org/10.1101/2025.0…

🔥Hot springs, fast currents, and bacteria defying the flow! Our latest study on bioRxiv shows how thermophilic bacteria actively move upstream!🌊 Using type IV pili, they resist being swept away and navigates towards their ecological niches.🔬#rheotaxis doi.org/10.1101/2025.0…

Bacterial dancing in hot springs!? Our research just got published in The ISME Journal! doi.org/10.1093/ismejo… These bacteria can't swim, but they stand up and groove upstream like street dancers. Watch the "reverse-flow dance" youtu.be/JDN28g-aE78
