I'm delighted to share a useful FREE web-based app portal of powerful bioinformatics tools for microbial genomes and shotgun microbiome sequences!
It's called Micromics and is built by Middle Author Bioinformatics, led by co-founder @ironark.bsky.social
omix.midauthorbio.com
A suite of bioinformatics tools for microbial genome and metagenome analysis.
Thanks so much to @crestoptics.bsky.social for highlighting our research!

Thrilled to share that my first-author paper is now published in Nature Communications! đ Huge thanks to my PI, Dr. Drew Bridges (@bridgesbio.bsky.social), my collaborators, and all the incredible lab members for their support throughout this project

Congratulations to @emmynguyen.bsky.social and our wonderful collaborators. Here we uncover and characterize a periplasm protein that modulates broad physiological changes to V. cholerae by controlling a two component system!
New preprint: "A branching cell-fate decision in biofilm dispersal enables long-term surface persistence." When V. cholerae biofilms disperse, it isnât a uniform exit, rather, an opportunity to bet-hedge. A subpopulation of cells stay behind, primed for biofilm regrowth. doi.org/10.64898/202...
