Pls share: Penn State Berks, a college of Penn State University in suburban Reading, has a Tenure-track appointment in biology with a focus in prokaryotic microbiology starting August 2025. A Ph.D. in microbiology or a related field is required.

Pls share:The Department of Biology at the University of Maryland, College Park, invites applications from individuals studying fundamental questions in ecology and evolutionary biology using microbial systems. https://t.co/navgehQR8M

Please share!!

VACCINE! Highly effective Chlamydia VACCINE!! 🤦‍♂️ Darn you @Google !!! We did NOT develop highly effective Chlamydia ... I promise!!!😂 USU Researchers Develop Highly Effective Chlamydia | Newswise

Encouraging news. Over the last year reported Gc cases are down nationwide and Chlamydia / Syphilis cases appear to be stabilizing. Courtesy of @CDCSTD https://t.co/iMZgmJLqcd

Excited to share this collaborative work on the development of an inactivated, whole-cell Chlamydia vaccine @Nature_NPJ vaccines. Great colab with the Jerse and Daly labs @USUhealthsci and Macintyre @TheDHVI. https://t.co/6lsnLXlOom

Just finished up our 2024 MIC Dept. Research Retreat @USUhealthsci @HJFMilMed HQ. Great talks from trainees / faculty and keynote Carlos Bhola from Panther Life Sciences.

This past Monday we got to hear a great talk from Dr. Brittany Johnson, from the Dept of Biological Sciences @unccharlotte . Immunostimulatory nucleic acid nanoparticles augment osteoblast and osteoclast type I interferon responses to Staph.

Had a great time at @UF this last week. Thanks to @TonyMaurelli, Dr. Daniel Swale, and @UF_EPI for inviting me down for a seminar, and Dr. Louise Ball for showing me around Gainesville 🍻

Just got back from the 10th Annual Biological Sciences Research Symposium @unccharlotte. Special thanks to the graduate student organizers for the invitation to come share our work, hear some great talks, and visit with fellow @UVA_MIC alum Dr. Brittany Johnson.

I'm really excited to announce that Melissa Kendall is the newest Editor at JB. @melissa_lulu_k team works on intestinal pathogens & their interaction with the gut microbiota. Learn more about the Kendall lab here: https://t.co/V4IprLsSwN @ASMicrobiology @JBacteriology

And while I'm at it: more research funding to translation is not the way. No amount of translational initiatives will do for gene editing what staring at some weird repeats in the genome of a random bacterium did, nor for eye disease what toying around in a physics lab did

Job alert (pls RT): an exciting #PhDposition in evolutionary microbiology available in my lab at @UU_University! Help us study the evolution of early intracellular bacteria and what they can tell us about their first hosts. Apply before April 8th. https://t.co/1mhQIWgAaj

Pls share. Faculty position in micro at Stetson University.

I am still looking for postdocs to join my lab. I have several NIH-funded positions to work either on Acinetobacter pathogenesis or OMV biogenesis in Bacteroides. Please RT.

Please Re-Post: PhD project - genetic dissection of the competitive interactions between P. aeruginosa and E. faecalis, a collaborative project with the fabulous Kline Lab (@KimInGeneva). Interested? --> DM me, earliest starting date April 2024

Pls share: The is an open position at the FDA in Washington DC for a microbiologist with experience/interest in working with biofilms. COntact Dr. Greg Anderson (Anderson, Gregory <Gregory.Anderson@fda.hhs.gov>) for details.

Very cool.
