Great to see HF Awardee Tim Cernak chat with our friends at @scifri.bsky.social!
Very excited to share the most recent review from our lab, available online and soon in #BiochemSocTrans! This review covers an area of ongoing research in the lab: the role of TAM receptors in the spread of non-enveloped viruses

The @hypothesisfund.bsky.social has awarded a prestigious seed grant to @uofubiology.bsky.social professor Talia Karasov, who researches the microbial weapons bacteria inflict on each other in an evolutionary arms race that might hold the keys to addressing the threat of antibiotic resistance.
Univ. Utah biologist (the amazing Talia Karasov) wins seed grant to deepen research into tailocins, the weapons microbes use on each other.

Please check out my interview on the Out of Patients Podcast with @oliverbogler.bsky.social. We chatted about the hidden curriculum and my experience starting @ucdavis.bsky.social, feeling like a failure, and being supported by the Life Science Editors Foundation. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/s...
A novel angle on antibiotic resistance may come from understanding how bacteria protect themselves from viruses. Dr. Karasov’s bold new project explores how bacterial antiviral defense systems could reveal entirely new insights into antibiotic resistance and fundamental biology.
Abstract. Tyro3, Axl, and Mer are receptor tyrosine kinases that comprise the TAM receptor family. These receptors, originally identified as orphan receptors, do not bind growth factors but rather lig...

In our #PictureOfTheWeek, a sea turtle named Bellatrix is riddled with tumors. Usually surgery is the only option for turtles, but chemist Tim Cernak hopes to change that.
