Debajjyoti Basu

Last week the #FloydLab of @ISU went to @2025ASMBiofilms and I got the opportunity to showcase bits and pieces of my PhD thesis. What a great conference, it was so fascinating to learn about other people’s work and how they tackle the various problems related to biofilm.

3years of My masters which involved building the lab from absolute scratch to having 3 manuscripts in the pipeline right now was a long journey but my friends who made this fun farewell presentation made this journey worthwhile! Truly grateful for the journey. @BasuDebajjyoti

Yesterday @IllinoisStateU Biological Science Department organised Phi Sigma Banquet ‘25, where I was given the award of the Best Teaching Assistant at PhD level. A big thanks to the Biological Science Department and to @FloydLab for the recognition.

Debajjyoti Basu shared exciting insights into how unsaturated long-chain fatty acids (LCFAs) regulate the Type IV MSHA pilus in Vibrio cholerae, a key player in surface attachment and biofilm formation. @BasuDebajjyoti @kafloyd06 @IllinoisStateU #blastmeeting2025 #biofilms

@PaitzLab @kafloyd06 @ISUBio I opened it without breaking 😂

@kafloyd06 @ISUBio @BasuDebajjyoti Did he break the cork?

@Saddlab @kafloyd06 Thanks @Saddlab
