Hello folks! With exciting new grants and new projects in our lab, ✨we are hiring!✨ Please share with prospective Ph.D. students and/or postdocs interested in evolution, genetics, and microbes!

Very excited to have joined SCELSE at NTU Singapore to continue my biofilm and bacterial interaction research! I will have a few positions available in my lab that we will advertise soon 🦠

Ever wondered how #Vibrio coralliilyticus causes disease in corals and other marine animals when the ocean gets hot? In this new work, we uncover #T6SSs as an important virulence factor. TAU Faculty of Medical & Health Sciences 1/7 journals.plos.org/plosbiology/ar…

Congrats to my friend and colleague Guosong Hong for his stunning and original discovery, published today in Science, on clearing tissues *in living animals* with a common food dye! The dye is tartrazine, used in Doritos! science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Excited to share the latest from the lab. We show that Cyclic AMP is a global virulence regulator governing inter and intrabacterial signalling and adaptive antibiotic resistance in Acinetobacter baumannii PLOS Pathogens journals.plos.org/plospathogens/…

UW-Madison is advertising a tenure-track faculty position in Infectious Diseases, broadly defined. Come join our expanding department in beautiful Madison! Please share and read more👇. (1/5) jobs.wisc.edu/jobs/assistant… #TTjobs #academicjobs

This is big! Global burden of bacterial antimicrobial resistance 1990–2021: a systematic analysis with forecasts to 2050 Fresh out in The Lancet including age- and geo-resolved data and predictions. thelancet.com/journals/lance…

Wow! Thank you Marie Claire for recognizing me as a 2024 Changemaker 🤩 #womeninSTEM #LongCovid #MECFS #PAIS Yale Center for Infection and Immunity Yale School of Medicine

Excited to share our new preprint describing a novel chronic model of infection for Acinetobacter. We can now study secondary/polymicrobial infections, test antibiotic treatments for days and discover virulence factors required for persistent infections biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

VERY excited to be starting as an Assistant Professor in Microbiology at Montana State! 🧫🔬🦠My research will focus on bacterial pathogenesis. Lab Website: laurakjennings.wixsite.com/jenningslab

Excited to share this work from former Pruneda Lab superstar Cam Roberts! Cam tackled the challenge of identifying #ubiquitin regulators secreted by pathogenic bacteria, and found an entirely new type of E3 ligase that regulates P. aeruginosa virulence! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Looking for a faculty position? Join our department UW School of Vet Med UW-Madison. We are recruiting a tenure-track faculty in Infectious Diseases. An amazing campus, promoting cutting edge research in a collaborative environment, in the beautiful city of Madison. Please share!

We are all living in a bubble that deprives us of experiences needed to understand the true magnitude of the threat posed by the rise of multi-drug resistant infections. It would be wise to allocate resources that match the severity of the threat. science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

#TalentsCNRS🥈| Éric Cascales contribue de façon majeure à la compréhension des mécanismes impliqués dans la compétition entre bactéries. Il est récompensé par la médaille d’argent du CNRS 🌍.

Check out our last #preprint biorxiv.org/content/10.110… Great work led by Lea_swk on deciphering the first step of membrane injury by the #T3SS needle during #Shigella infection

From bacteria to human immunity! On our quest to idendify eukaryotic homologs of antiphage systems, we discovered a family of SIR2 immune proteins widespread in eukaryotes. We show that a human homolog, SIRanc, is a novel actor of the TLR pathway. biorxiv.org/content/10.110… 🧵👇

Our NAD-reconstitution story is finally published in @nature rdcu.be/dU5AQ Thank you to all co-authors, especially to hadarsamra, François Rousset, Elena Loseva, Erez Tzvi Yirmiya, Adi Millman, and everybody in the Sorek Lab for their help and support.

7 years ago, I met a junior fellow named Jason Buenrostro who blew me away with a vision of futuristic genomic technologies Today, we (Ajay Labade, @carolinecomenho) are excited to share our first steps into that future: Expansion in situ genome sequencing 1/
