Former students revisiting my notes in Med/Grad school, thanking me for sparking their love for Microbiology - that’s the real reward. Still, nice to have the work recognized w/ the department’s highest teaching award. Grateful & honored.

Excited to share our work w/ colleagues at @univofmaryland.bsky.social this week. Thanks to Vincent Lee for the invitation. Looking forward to connecting with UMD, NIH & other colleagues in the area; hope you can attend the seminar!
What happens when Purdue U. has its own airport? The Biological Sciences faculty share a quick 6am pow-wow and hugs as they jet off to their individual seminar and conference destinations across the country! DC, LA, Charlotte… here we come!

Day 1 of @asm.org #ASMmicrobe2026 was great! Wonderful reconnecting with the Microbiology community, including fellow @hypothesisfund.bsky.social family members @laahrs.bsky.social & @paulturnerlab.bsky.social!
After 4 days at @asm.org, we microbiologists not only start dressing alike in matching colors, but looking alike too! 😜

Day 3 of @asm.org also reconnected me with fellow @hypothesisfund.bsky.social awardee @kacarlab.bsky.social! She is such a star 🤩
Feels like this paper on protein-templated DNA synthesis by a natural enzyme warrants some comment.
So here's a 🧵. /1
