@JJAlston_ @HHMINEWS Congrats Jhulian🔥

Yall I can hardly contain my excitement! I'm happy to share that I’m joining the new cohort of @HHMINews #HannaGrayFellows! I'm grateful for the opportunity to advance my research and connect with this great community.

@Dr_MadThreats @JJAlston_ @HHMINEWS Congrats Maple!!🙏🏿

Beyond elated to announce that I’m joining the new cohort of @HHMINEWS #HannaGrayFellows! Truly blessed for the opportunity to keep advancing my research in developmental biology and inspiring others!

Had a great time at #abrcms2024 this past week! Been going since 2016 and it's always a great environment for you scientists to gather💪🏿.

Honored to be a finalist for the 2024 Dean’s Award for Grad Research Excellence @WUSTL! Got to give my first-ever 3-minute talk (fast but fun!). Huge thanks to my awesome advisor @JLosos the BioDept & @WashUdbbs fam for the constant support. 🙌🏿✊🏿

Excited to share our new preprint describing a novel chronic model of infection for Acinetobacter. We can now study secondary/polymicrobial infections, test antibiotic treatments for days and discover virulence factors required for persistent infections biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

QUINCY WASNT EVEN IN MEDAL CONTENTION OFF THE TURN HOW DID HE FIND THAT GEAR?! 😭

The value of ‘wasting time’ on deep thinking is often overlooked in a scientific ecosystem increasingly tainted by Wall Street’s productivity mindset. nature.com/articles/d4158…

I am excited to announce the latest pre-print on bioRxiv from the Millman lab! It happens to be my first ever first-author manuscript as well. Give it a read!! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Great work @jhancsalazar 🔥💪🏿

2024 GRC on Bacterial Cell Surfaces is officially in the books! I am very grateful for all the feedback, encouragement, and advice. Happy to have made new friends and for time spent with old ones. Plus Maine is beautiful!

Nutrient acquisition strategies by gut microbes Muramatsu & Winter @UCSD review how commensal & pathogenic gut bacteria use diverse strategies to obtain & process macronutrients, w/focus on bacterial carbon & energy metabolism in mammalian intestinal tract cell.com/cell-host-micr…

Imagine growing a miniature version of the human intestine in the lab to study gut biology in great detail and test medicines before clinical trials? We are happy to share our latest publication on bioengineered human mini-intestines: authors.elsevier.com/sd/article/S19… Let’s dive in!

“I’m sure next month will be less busy” Next month:

Umberto Eco, who owned 50,000 books, had this to say about home libraries: "It is foolish to think that you have to read all the books you buy, as it is foolish to criticize those who buy more books than they will ever be able to read. It would be like saying that you should use all the cutlery or glasses or screwdrivers or drill bits you bought before buying new ones. "There are things in life that we need to always have plenty of supplies, even if we will only use a small portion. "If, for example, we consider books as medicine, we understand that it is good to have many at home rather than a few: when you want to feel better, then you go to the 'medicine closet' and choose a book. Not a random one, but the right book for that moment. That's why you should always have a nutrition choice! "Those who buy only one book, read only that one and then get rid of it. They simply apply the consumer mentality to books, that is, they consider them a consumer product, a good. Those who love books know that a book is anything but a commodity."

The lack of working-class representation in academia is not just an issue of fairness – it limits the scope and depth of research. Diversity drives innovation.

Excited to share our new preprint. We found that the NSAID diclofenac together with colistin synergistically reduce type IV pili and induce oxidative stress to eliminate infection by colistin-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii. Great work by @fabybisaro and many colleagues

Come check me out on Pubmed🔥. Thank you to everyone in the lab and our collaborators for their support!

Frankly, I left academia because postdoc salary was too low for my growing family. Fortunately, I circled back around after having a staff position. Think about all the talent diverted due to finances.

@ScienceEP starting the morning session at #2023MMPC Congrats Evan!! @MarioFeldman9
