Reference genome choice compromises population genetic analyses Using a species-specific reference genome significantly improves the accuracy of population genetic analyses, as exemplified by mapping gray fox sequence data to genomes of several canid species. Mapp...

Reference genome choice compromises population genetic analyses - a problem for microbes too! Our lab is designing a tool to automatically choose references for input samples using features like phylogeny of reads to existing references. Any thoughts🤩? 🧪🦠🧬🖥️ #microsky

Very interesting, thank you very much !

The New Invasion - @fgravey.bsky.social presenting the epidemiology of carbapenem-resistant bacteria in Normandy, France

[How to promote medical biology to medical students: interest of interactive clinical cases in biological laboratory] - PubMed Despite its central role in modern medicine, medical biology tends to attract fewer future physicians. The reasons for this disinterest are varied: a lack of awareness about the specialty among studen...

In France, despite medical biology contributing to 70% of medical diagnoses, a decreasing number of medical residents are choosing this specialty. However, dedicated teaching, presented in an engaging and interactive manner, has proven effective 😀

Bravo @tarcilazarzosa.bsky.social

Academically, I know there are massive problems with access to adequate antibiotics in LMICs, but looking at infection burden and sales of relevant antibiotics, this article estimates only 6.9% of CRGN infections are treated properly.

Truly shocking.

I feel seen.

Really pleased to see our students doing their first oral communications at the rencontres normandes de microbiologie today organized in Evreux. Bravo Tarcila and Blandine ! @universite-caen.bsky.social @inserm.fr

Barry Blitt’s cover for this week’s issue, “The First Hundred Days.” #NewYorkerCovers nyer.cm/ysrCZ47

This morning with my team we talked about the @angelahuttner.bsky.social pilot program in @cmicomms.bsky.social journal in which some very relevant reviewers could be add in the acknowledgments or perhaps among authors ! At the unanimity, this is an amazing idea 🙂

Attendees can receive certificates for attending or presenting at #ESCMIDGlobal 2025. For more info, visit the congress webpage: ow.ly/sHfa50VzNO7

Please note, you can only claim credit points once, so be sure to claim them all at the end.

Our May issue is now LIVE!🎊

Sequence-dependent activity and compartmentalization of foreign DNA in a eukaryotic nucleus In eukaryotes, DNA-associated protein complexes coevolve with genomic sequences to orchestrate chromatin folding. We investigate the relationship between DNA sequence and the spontaneous loading and a...

Very interesting discovery from an Institut Pateur team about interactions between bacterial and eukaryotic DNA cells.

Thank you very much for your help 🙂

Thank you very much for the link, but I’m unable to reach the video ? Thanks

Thank you very much to @drneilstone.bsky.social for your very inspiring talk this morning about the scientific presence on social medias at #escmidglobal2025. You have been heard, this is my first message on Bluesky. Let’s see how it goes 🙂

editor-in-chief Ursula Hofer speaks about predatory publishing at ESCMID Global in Vienna.

Great talk by Ursula Hofer @hoferu.bsky.social, editor-in-chief of @thelancetinfdis.bsky.social, on #predatorypublishing. So many horrible things to learn. 😥
#ESCMIDGlobal #IDSky

Another great talk! @drneilstone.bsky.social discusses how social media can serve you & communicate your research! Some great slides breaking down an effective posting strategy! 🚀
