Proud to present this joint effort to discover how S. epidermidis selectively binds to fibronectin on surfaces. It only binds to fibrillated Fn, using the giant protein Embp with 50 repeats that enables it to stick like velcro! #biofilm doi.org/10.7554/eLife.… eLife - the journal

Proud of our latest collaborative quest to develop new ways to target biofilm infections: Staphylococcus aureus-binding antibodies loaded with Mitomycin C. The bacteria trigger drug release upon contact, leading to their death. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

It's a privilege to be a small part of Thomas Tørring and Thomas Poulsen's interesting work on the antimicrobial properties of ionophores. Some of these compounds even kill bacteria in the persister state. Check it out! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

So very happy to make this announcement today!

Billions of people lack access to clean drinking water.💧🌍 In a new project, funded by Innovationsfonden, @Grundfos, Aarhus Universitet, SAMN Forsyning, & VIA University College join forces in improving access to clean drinking water worldwide by improving #reverseosmosis technology. #CleanWaterForAll

So excited for the official kick-off for this project this week! A fantastic team, and an important agenda as Europe faces a growing water crisis. Looking forward to working together for the next 4 years, thanks to funding from Innovationsfonden !

Four PhD positions in biofilm research available in Portugal. Application deadline this week - check it out! ebiofilm.fe.up.pt/opportunities/

Are you interested in the extracellular matrix of biofilms: Don't miss this webinar with 3 excellent speakers on Monday the 28th of August at 16:30 (ECT)! "What's new on the extracellular front of Biofilms?" Register for free here: lnkd.in/eXPQjCdq

We hope to see you again this year to catch up with old and new colleagues at the #DMS2023 Congress. Find programme, registration and abstract submission here: dms.dk/general-inform… Abstract deadline is October 3rd. #micobiology #research

Interested in knowing more about mechanisms of polymicrobial biofilm-associated infection? We are so excited to present Professor Kimberly Kline as our closing keynote speaker at the #DMS2023 Congress. Register here and join us for this superb event:dms.dk/congress/regis…

We are looking for a microbiologist to join our team as postdoc from 1. January. Our research is on drug conjugates that bind to bacteria and release antimicrobials. Deadline: 20. September. inano.au.dk/open-positions…

PhD position available to study the biological role of catalytic DNA structures in the extracellular matrix of biofilms. Apply here before 1. February: phd.nat.au.dk/for-applicants…

Our latest work on extracellular DNA in biofilms was just published in Nucleic Acids Research. A web of G-quadruplex-rich DNA has catalytic activity. Check it out! #biofilms #staphylococcus #DNA academic.oup.com/nar/advance-ar…

🦠🧬Protective Power of DNA Structures in Bacterial Biofilms! Researchers led by RikkeMeyer from iNANO (Aarhus Universitet) and Aarhus Uni.hospital, reveal how G-quadruplexes & Z-DNA shield biofilms from DNase I, offering new insights into resilience. #Biofilm inano.au.dk/about/news-eve…

Great seeing my PhD supervisor RikkeMeyer at the biofilm matrix symposium in SG SCELSE #snbc

Great to visit SCELSE in Singapore this week and to catch up with old friends!

Have you ever stained bacteria with SYTO stains and wondered why they look so dim? Many SYTO stains are pumped out of bacterial multidrug efflux pumps. If you want to avoid false-negative staining, you have add efflux pump inhibitors to your experiment. lnkd.in/dGb_fmek

📢#Eurobiofilms2024 from ESGB will take place in Denmark from 26-29 June 2024. The event will include all aspects of #biofilms, from bench to bedside, from #environment to chronic infections presented by internationally recognised researchers➡️tinyurl.com/2apn8jyx

I am very proud and grateful to have been invited to become a member of the Royal Danish Academy of Sciences and Letters. I look forward to what this will bring! royalacademy.dk/da/Aktuelt/Nye…

How do biofilms avoid being killed by immune cells? Our research shows that extracellular DNA knitted together with polysaccharides in the biofilm matrix is the key to protection. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
