Very happy to share that a large part of my thesis work is out today: B. subtilis uses the second messenger c-di-AMP to modulate its turgor pressure in response to the state of its cell envelope. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Brogan et al. uncover a signalling pathway in which levels of the nucleotide second messenger c-di-AMP increase in response to defects in cell wall synthesis. This regulatory pathway decreases turgor ...

Harvard today, your institution tomorrow.

It's all part of the Project 2025 plan to destroy high education in America.

All leading US universities depend on federal funding and tuition dollars from international students. They severely curtailed the former. Now they're eliminating the latter.

All funding has been cut. I don’t think the general public has fully absorbed the sheer scale of Trump’s illegal attacks on scientific research at Harvard. “A bloodbath - Entire labs are unraveling, and young scientists on training grants may be suddenly adrift.”

Columbia University lays off nearly 180 researchers due to Trump funding cuts
Columbia University said on Tuesday it was laying off dozens of researchers whose work was funded by U.S. government grants and contracts that President Donald Trump's administration canceled in March, citing antisemitic harassment on and near campus.

Hiring (and salary) freeze at Harvard. That's going to spread far beyond elite universities. Every time I see something like this I think of the administrators who thought they could duck, the "apolitical" faculty who couldn't be bothered, the radicals who can see only one issue at a time.
Amid Trump’s funding threats, Harvard freezes hiring - The Boston Globe
Harvard cited “substantial financial uncertainties driven by rapidly shifting federal policies.”
