Now out in PLOS Comp Biol, work led by Phil Tubergen of UVa Biology on P. syringae metabolism during leaf colonization. We leveraged ensemble modeling to guide curation of a new genome-scale metabolic network reconstruction for P. syringae. Papin Lab journals.plos.org/ploscompbiol/a…

Excited to share our latest article published in @ploscompbiol: journals.plos.org/ploscompbiol/a… #ploscompbiolauthor

Wonderful collaboration with Saucerman Group, Anders Wallqvist (at bhsai.org), and others.

PLOS Comp Biol Editorial Board Dinner during #ISMB2024. Thanks for bringing us together and for inviting me to be part of this amazing team.

🎉 Excited to share our preprint on FROG analysis ensuring reproducibility, reusability and reliability of Genome-Scale Metabolic Models! It is a true community effort, kudos to 90+ co-authors! More details here: biorxiv.org/content/10.110… #Reproducibility #SystemsBiology #GEM
