Had a short but sweet visit to Zürich to speak at @ethz.ch. Many thanks to @phagemuffin.bsky.social and @aharms485.bsky.social!

What a month...I spent June in the US at the @cshlnews.bsky.social Advanced Bacterial Genetics course and then the GRC Molecular Mechanisms in Evolution! I met so many cool people along the way — special shoutout to my course lab partner, Max!

Hopped over to Northern Ireland last week to give a talk at @qubelfastofficial.bsky.social for their AMR seminar series. Thanks very much to @rwheatley8.bsky.social, @lindaoyama.bsky.social, and @sharonhuws.bsky.social for hosting me!

Wrapped up 2024 with the @typaslab.bsky.social in Heidelberg @embl.org, doing some evolution experiments with @stefanbassler.bsky.social. Had an incredible time and looking forward to an exciting year of science in 2025!

Stress-testing #asobiotics… @mulkern.bsky.social & @mgalactus.bsky.social from @twincore.bsky.social, in collaboration with the Vogel lab at the Helmholtz Institute Würzburg, have employed in-vitro laboratory evolution to study how different bacteria develop resistance to programmable antibiotics. 👇
We used in-vitro laboratory evolution to "stress test" the next generation class of antibiotics based on antisense oligos ("asobiotics"). Head over to our new preprint to find out more!

Excited to share something from my previous postdoc with
@mgalactus.bsky.social, a collaboration with the lab of Jörg Vogel using lab evolution to see how different bacterial species develop resistance to programmable antibiotics:

A systematic identification of resistance determinants to antisense antibiotics suggests adaptation strategies dependent on the delivery peptide
The rise of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) among human pathogenic microbes is a serious threat to global health, calling for the development of novel treatment strategies. Antibiotics based on program...
