New manuscript: "Interplay of Spatial Structure and Interactions in Microbial Communities" is now published: …icro-journals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/14… We share our thoughts on how interactions and spatial organization are intertwined in a spatial context. We hope this initiates more discussions.

New preprint: Ethan, a talented undergraduate researcher in my lab, has used a consumer-resource model to explain how colonization resistance is affected by community richness and cross-feeding based on the availability and diversity of resources: biorxiv.org/cgi/content/sh…

Now published in @SciReports: Work by Dr. Natalie Sandlin shows that diverse bacteria can degrade aflatoxins and that with starch as the primary carbon source, aflatoxin degradation is enhanced and the likelihood of finding good degraders increases. nature.com/articles/s4159…

Now published in @PLOSCompBiol: "Revisiting the invasion paradox: Resistance-richness relationship is driven by augmentation and displacement trends". Credit goes to Yu, a talented undergraduate student in the lab (at the time). doi.org/10.1371/journa…

Our collaborative work on mechanistic examination of spike-receptor binding is now published. We predict protein-protein binding using first-principles modeling and validate the predictions experimentally. royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/rs…

Congratulations to Natalie Sandlin @natlynambrose for successfully defending her PhD dissertation yesterday. Really proud of her. She has been a role model, for her kindness and care for all lab members and the dedication and resilience in her research. #PhD #PhDone #DrSandlin

New preprint alert: Yu Zhu, a talented undergraduate student in our lab (at the time), re-examined the invasion paradox and found that simple trends for augmentation and displacement can explain the non-monotonic relationship between invasion and richness: biorxiv.org/cgi/content/sh…

This beautiful pre-print is a one-man show by @oliMeacock but has already become central to the way we are thinking about interactions in the lab. His new framework that can help predict how interactions between species change over time and space!
Oliver Meacock@oliMeacock

New pre-print! My first research project with @saramitri is now live. Interactions underpin our understanding of ecosystems, but can change in hard-to-explain ways. Here, we show that many of these variations can be predicted from underlying mechanisms: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

New preprint: "Weakly alkaline conditions degrade aflatoxins through lactone ring opening": biorxiv.org/content/10.110…. Important for applications: it offers a not-so-harsh path to decontamination. Important for research: often other detox mechanisms are confounded by pH effects.

New preprint alert (by the amazing @natlynambrose)! Searching for bacteria that degrade aflatoxins (AFs), Natalie found that 1) AF degradation is phylogenetically diverse and 2) using starch as C source improves the performance and screening efficiency. biorxiv.org/cgi/content/sh….

I'd like to encourage those broadly interested in microbial ecology & evolution to participate (present a talk/poster or attend invited/contributed talks). The format is intended to be accessible: everyone is welcome in-person or virtually free of charge: meehubs.org
MEEhubs@MEEhubs

Abstract submission deadline is coming up on September 29th! This is your chance to talk about your work at the first globally distributed conference in microbial ecology & evolution! meehubs.org You don't even need to endanger the planet to do it ;)
