@2025ASMBiofilms will sponsor a similar thematic issue following the conference in November 2025

The thematic issue on Biofilms is now out for FEMS Microbiology Reviews. Multiple great reviews on a range of biofilm topics. #ASMBiofilms academic.oup.com/femsre/pages/b…

Our new paper on pterin-dependent regulatory systems is out with @JenLovesBugs and our collaborators at Va Tech (Kylie Allen lab), Northwestern (Karla Satchell and colleagues at the CSBID), and Purdue (Arun Ghosh lab), & Fuqua lab alums. doi: 10.1073/pnas.2319903121

Looking forward to a great conference!

An interesting piece on the benefits of cooperation in science

@EvolvedBiofilm @JenLovesBugs Congrats to @JenLovesBugs and our co-authors - the product of a great collaboration with Kylie Allen and colleagues (Va Tech) and Karla Satchell, George Minasov and their team at the Center for Structural Biology of Infectious Disease (Northwestern Feinberg School of Medicine).

Also thrilled to be joined today by our newest colleague Nicki Limoli @DominiqueLimoli for the 2023 IU Micro Retreat! First talk of the retreat!

We are excited to host Pam Brown @BrownlabMizzou today for the IU Micro Retreat! Another terrific IU Micro alumnus to inspire our trainees and faculty.

Looking forward to the IU Biotechnology Joan Woods Lecture this Thursday (10/05, 5:20-6:20pm, BB124) from Dr. Robin Patel @micro_rp on biofilm-associated infections on prosthetic joints - also hopefully, some insights into Dr. Patel's amazing career path.

@2022Biofilms - this position would be ideal for a biofilm researcher.

@2022Biofilms Conference review has now seen the light of day. Its a pretty comprehensive distillation of what was a terrific conference in fall 2022. We are now working towards 2025 #Biofilms2022 journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/jb…

Looking forward to the Watanabe Symposium tomorrow (09/30) through the IU Quantitative and Chemical Biology training grant. @IUQCB iuqcb.indiana.edu/events/watanab…

@3rdreviewer Wow - aren't you the youngster!

I defended my Ph.D. exactly 20 years ago today.

I actually found this quite good: not nearly as hagiographic as some of the other pieces, and gives a real idea of Nei as a (scientific) person pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…

@markowenmartin @NEBiolabs Q5 is pretty heat tolerant and probably still fine!

Sad event. Ordered from @NEBiolabs. FedEx left it overnight in warehouse. Doubt enzymes are good. Out of pocket pain. Not @NEBiolabs’ fault!!

Great representation of IU Micro members past and present!

This is bad news.
