New preprint: "A branching cell-fate decision in biofilm dispersal enables long-term surface persistence." When V. cholerae biofilms disperse, it isn’t a uniform exit, rather, an opportunity to bet-hedge. A subpopulation of cells stay behind, primed for biofilm regrowth. doi.org/10.64898/202...
Thrilled to share that my first-author paper is now published in Nature Communications! 🎉 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!
