Hey y'all! My department is conducting a search for an assistant or associate professor in bacteriology. It's pretty broadly defined. If you know anyone who's looking for a great department that does awesome science - please send them our way! You can DM me with any questions you have 😀

Thanks!

Thank you 🙂

We heard Stefan talk about his work on multicellularity in Stenotrophomonas at our conference this January, check out his latest preprint!

Project was led by postdoc Stefan Katharios, working with @tiffzarrella.bsky.social and other lab members.

Stenotrophomonas maltophilia exhibits defensive multicellularity in response to a Pseudomonas aeruginosa quorum sensing molecule Microorganisms commonly exist in polymicrobial communities, where organisms can respond to interspecies secreted molecules by altering behaviors and physiology, however, the underlying mechanisms rema...

New preprint alert 🚨: We found that Steno maltophila senses a quorum sensing molecule from the co-infecting pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa and switches to multicellular aggregates as a protective mechanism. #MicroSky

Genetic determinants of gene amplifications alter frequency and evolutionary trajectory of antibiotic resistance in Staphylococcus aureus Gene amplifications are thought to be common in bacterial populations, providing a rapid reversible mode of adaptation to diverse stresses, including the acquisition of antibiotic resistance. We previ...

Excited to share this new preprint from the lab, where postdoc Pavan Silva @kptsilva.bsky.social found pathways that control gene amplifications, and thus antibiotic resistance, in Staph aureus!

Our paper is now online at PLOS Genetics! @plos.org

Come join our faculty! We’re hiring.

Congratulations Vaughn @vscooper.micropopbio.org !!

Efflux pump gene amplifications bypass necessity of multiple target mutations for resistance against dual-targeting antibiotic - Nature Communications Antibiotics that attack multiple targets in bacteria are thought to reduce the frequency of resistance. The authors show that genomic amplifications of poorly characterized efflux pumps can instead le...

Wow - bluesky! 📈 🦠

Please help me amplify a special faculty search. We're looking for someone in "Microbial Systems Biology" to join me and @kreynoldslab.bsky.social at UTSW Sys Bio / Bioinformatics.

There is an empty lab space right next to us waiting for you!

Check out this new review from our lab led by postdoc Pavan Silva! We explore the varied mechanisms by which gene amplifications lead to antibiotic resistance.

New preprint from our lab! We found that Staph aureus evolves tolerance to pyocyanin produced by Pseudomonas aeruginosa via CodY mutations. Project was started by @saraalexander.bsky.social and then led by @tmartini.bsky.social who tested so many possibilities to pin down the mechanism!

New year, new preprint from our lab!
