Important move from our funding agency. My DM is open if someone you know needs a host
The Czech Science Foundation (Grantová agentura České republiky) launches its support to the scientists and students from Ukraine. At this time and in the future, Ukrainian colleagues are welcome in the Czech Republic: https://t.co/ix30gnaI0d

I'm writing a textbook chapter about high-res methods to study biofilms. What's your favorite in vitro biofilm model?? #biofilms #CF #cysticfibrosis #Microbiology #oralhealth #pseudomonas

A terminal cancer diagnosis has changed the arc of my career. I'm winding down the lab, but VERY excited to launch a fundraising campaign to raise money for young scholars to participate in the Research Society on Alcoholism Annual Meeting.

Cases of #COVID19 are on the rise. As of March 1, the 7-day moving average of new cases is 66,010, a 3.5% increase from the previous week. Now is not the time to relax prevention measures. Wear a well-fitting mask. Stay 6 feet apart. Avoid crowds. More: https://t.co/YT7LKi6sF2.

We've got something reminiscent to @theMaxwellLab's recent work: phage proteins upregulating QS in P. aeruginosa! Different phage, similar phenotype. Similar mechanism? Stay tuned!
We discovered that the bright blue phenotype we observed was a result of big blue - now known as anti-quorum sensing protein 1 (Aqs1) - binding to LasR, the master regulator of QS. We think the phage does this to silence anti-phage systems that are upregulated by QS pathways.

I have a message for all the little girls and boys out there who dream of growing up to be superheroes: Superheroes walk among us. They’re teachers, doctors, scientists, vaccine researchers—and you can grow up to be like them too.
