Our lab has specific opening for a #postdoc interested in studying the regulation of cell growth and division in M. tuberculosis - part of a large program that fosters access to resources throughout the TB research community. Oh, and we just happen to be awesome! #postdocjobs.

This small study suggests an important link between antibiotic exposure, carbon metabolism, and culturability. Larger studies are underway to understand the mechanism and clinical importance of these findings.
