Together this project really underscores the importance of studying fundamentals of cell biology in non-model organisms. This was a really challenging project made possible by an incredible collaboration with Eun Seon Chung, @Ariel_4321, and @KarPrathitha. 5/5 #tuberculosis

Finally, it is thought that a broad range of cell types grow exponentially at the single-cell level, but we find that Mtb grow linearly, implying that we need to study what processes Mtb use to control growth as it is fundamentally different from other studied cell types. 4/5

Tap tap…is the🎙️ still on? This work has been in the works for a long time! We studied the growth behaviors and cell cycle timing of individual TB bacilli and ended up with a series of surprises and a lot of new questions. 1/5 nature.com/articles/s4156…

.@trevercsmith of @TuftsMedSchool has been named winner of the #BAL 2024 Emerging Leader Award. Dr. Smith will receive $150K for his pioneering research on combination therapies for persistent #Lymedisease. His work aims to create a first-of-its-kind drug interaction compendium to better target persistent Borrelia burgdorferi (Bb) infections. This could lead to more effective treatments, offering new hope for those w/ persistent #Lyme. Read the full release here: bit.ly/4d3Slu1 #Lymediseaseresearch #Lymetherapeutics

Can bacterial *mechanical properties* affect virulence? YES! Excited this is finally out, led by @lttlAFM . "Soft" mycobacteria survive better within macrophages! Mechanical morphotype switching as an adaptive response in mycobacteria | Science Advances science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…
