Great collaboration with @guo-lab.bsky.social to determine an in situ architectural model of the Tad pilus machine. Be on the lookout soon for a preprint on the same topic by Grant Jensen and @viollierpat.bsky.social. #microsky

Excited to share that I have been appointed F.R.S.-FNRS Research Associate to launch my independent research group at the University of Namur!
We will study the diversity, regulation & environmental control of bacterial cell elongation.
More soon- new projects, collaborations & opportunities ahead!

How does your favourite bug grow? Elongation modes vary even between close relatives. We tracked PG insertion and uncovered surprising diversity within the Caulobacteraceae.

Phenotypic plasticity in cell elongation among closely related bacterial species - Nature Communications
Multiple types of cell elongation have been described in bacteria, but little is known about how these strategies vary across species. Here, the authors use fluorescent D-amino acids to track the spat...

Phenotypic plasticity in bacterial elongation among closely related species
Cell elongation is a fundamental component of the bacterial cell cycle and has been studied over many decades, in part owing to its mechanisms being a target of numerous antibiotic classes. While seve...
