Great start of #VAAM2026 in Berlin with a lovely musical kickoff 🎶Looking forward to chairing tomorrow’s session on membrane contact sites in bacterial infections🦠 (11:00, Lecture Hall E) with a keynote from @mschuhmacher.bsky.social #MembraneContactSites #Microbiology #InfectionBiology #LipidsRock
Excited to announce our new journal from @isme-microbes.bsky.social ISME Host Microbe is live and now accepting submissions. Look forward to receiving your papers! #Microsky 🧫 🦠
Such a fun collaboration with @mel-foulon.bsky.social from the TS lab 🤝-👀 We combined dual RNA-Seq 🧬 and advanced imaging 🔬 to uncover how intracellular compartmentalization drives niche-specific metabolic phenotypes in mycobacteria!! Fantastic team effort ✨ #Tbsky #microsky
Mélanie Foulon@mel-foulon.bsky.social · 6mo ago🚨 New preprint! Together with @carobarisch.bsky.social lab, we investigated how intracellular compartmentalization shapes lipid acquisition in mycobacteria Interestingly, deleting one FACL enzyme (FACL6) revealed striking compartment-dependent phenotypes 🔬 Check it out: doi.org/10.64898/202...

✨A big thank you to Giulia Manina for the kind invitation to @pasteur.fr Paris 🙏 I had a wonderful time, met many inspiring people 🌍 and enjoyed truly engaging conversations. 🧪 Grateful for the opportunity to connect and exchange ideas in such a remarkable place! 🌟
Excited to share Wendy Le Mouëllic’s PhD work, now published in @pnas.org! It reveals that M. tuberculosis depends on inorganic sulfate import to survive inside host cells—fueling essential processes such as redox balance and stress resistance. Huge congrats to Wendy & colleagues! shorturl.at/WbFQC
