A fantastic collaboration with the Tamulaitiene and Kranzusch labs
a triangle 🔺
it’s a basic shape, but no bacteria is a triangle
a clothes hanger, a slice of pizza, a dorito—all triangles
just not bacteria

Woohoo, the Microbiology Department (this includes me) at the JLU Giessen is looking for a new colleague (W2 with tenure track to W3).
Look here: uni-giessen.de/karriere/ste...
(and yes, knowledge of the German language is required ...).

(1/3) Antibiotic resistance is costing human lives. 🦠
A study from EMBL's Typas group proposed a framework to identify antibiotic pairs that make bacteria resistant to one antibiotic but sensitive to other – this can help design new treatments and delay resistance. 🧬🧪

I have an open Postdoc position in Molecular Systems Biology at ETH Zürich!
The project is about the conservation of transcription factors functions between strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa 🧬🦠

Resistance to one antibiotic can make bacteria resistant or sensitive to another antibiotic, opening paths for combinatorial treatments. A study in Nature Microbiology presents an approach to systematically discover and understand such antibiotic relationships. https://go.nature.com/49of3Mk 🧪
To fill up my empty feed, my first post on #bluesky.
Earlier this year we showed how the DdmDE system from pandemic Vibrio cholerae defends against invading plasmids. A great collaboration between the labs of Martin Jinek (UZH) and @mblokesch.bsky.social (EPFL).
