Really glad I could contribute to this work exploring biofilm formation, mucoidy and tip adhesin diversity in #klebsiella. For those in #KLEBS2024, I provided a sneak peak of the potential relation between K3 serotype & HMV This is also my first publication since I joined @cbitoulouse.bsky.social !

Check out our latest publication aligning the MRSN panel biofilm and mucoid phenotypes to the genotypes in npj Biofilms and Microbiomes! Special thanks to my collaborators on this work @olayarendueles.bsky.social and Taj Azarian! www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Had a great time at #KLEBS2024 !! Great science, beautiful city, new connections, and caught up with old friends! I was even lucky enough to give a seminar at Institut Pasteur on Friday. Bonus shower at the United club tonight in Newark using my one time pass 🚿🚿

Over the course of 30 years, HHMI Investigator Bonnie Bassler has helped usher in a new branch of science centered on quorum sensing, the process by which bacteria communicate with one another and orc...

I'm not hopeful that we'll make it out of the current anti-vax craze without first experiencing massive resurgence of preventable infectious disease. People no longer have a lived experience of what happens during outbreaks of measles, polio, smallpox, pertussis, etc.

Too often, non-standard methods in MIC testing impact reproducibility in AMR research. For more reliability: "Antibiotic susceptibility testing using minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) assays." -> from Laura Piddocks's tweet/X www.nature.com/articles/s44...
