First π¦ post - my main postdoc work is out in the world! We designed a Cas12a-based genetic screen to identify host factors that contribute to infection by the tickborne pathogen Rickettsia parkeri, and stumbled across a really exciting direct interaction between host and bacteriumπ¦ . Check it out!

EMBO Workshop Shigella: from biology to prevention
Don't let the bug's virulence fill you with dread,
When gourmet French dining awaits you instead.
So pack up your notes and your best, clever wits,
To discuss all the bug's crafty cellular tricks!

So leave behind protocols, your lab coat, and fuss,
For the #Pasteur Institute, what a treat for all of us!
For science needs mingling, and laughter, and cheer,
And #Paris in April, to holdΒ ShigellaΒ dear.

Your poster, so lovely, deserves a better fate,
Than to hang in the hallway, where no one elates.
In France, it'll be hailed, with a sophisticated nod,
"Ah, that elegant graph! A true gift from the science gods!"

You can email a colleague, "Oh, look what I've found!"
But better to meet them on Parisian ground.
WhereΒ #ShigellaΒ discussions are sprinkled with Brie,
And breakthroughs are discussed with a glass of Bordeaux, you see.

You could stare at your slides, with your tired, weary eyes,
And watch your own data in quiet demise.
Or you could fly to Paris, a city of lights,
And discuss bloody stools on the loveliest of nights!

Why attend the @shigellameeting.bsky.social in 6 months you ask? (π§΅) π¦ 𧫠π¬ #Microsky #IDsky
What a question and a grand request,
To muse on why scientists should travel for a pest!
Forget lonely lab benches and the pipette's cold song,
There are better pursuits for which researchers long.

NIH Standardized Organoid Modeling (SOM) Center
The Standardized Organoid Modeling (SOM) Center will be the nationβs first fully integrated platform dedicated to developing standardized organoid-based New Approach Methodologies (NAMs).
Exciting to see the Standardized #Organoid Modeling Center is opening to help standardize protocols, provide tools and resources, and connect the research community at the national level after being in development for a few years
