It's a wrap! Incredible science, people and discussions at the "New challenges in Microbial Eco-Evolutionary Medicine" workshop. Thank you @lizscurious.bsky.social for the invitation. It was a pleasure to talk about our research on recurrent #UTI using #organoids and collaboration with OM pharma.

Being a woman in science can be challenging for many reasons. Having a supportive network (family, friends, mentors) is essential! If you want to go into STEM, go for it and find yourself a mentor. Female scientists are usually more than happy to share their experiences💚

Bacteria use exogenous peptidoglycan as a danger signal to trigger biofilm formation - Nature Microbiology Peptidoglycan released by neighbouring kin or non-kin cell lysis induces physiological changes that protect from a range of stresses, including phage predation.

We found that many bacterial species use exogenous peptidoglycan fragments - released by lysis of neighboring cells - as a general danger signal, triggering a danger response that protects bacteria against many dangers: biofilm formation.

Had a great time at the first ever Klebsiella meeting taking place in Paris the past days. Lots of information and great science to digest for a non-Klebsiella person. We even had the first snow since years in Paris ❄️ #Klebs2024
