Please contact me in case you are looking for a postdoc lab and your are interested in the experimental ecology and evolution of metabolic interactions within microbial comunities.
I would be happy to support your application at the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation 👇

Don’t really use this anymore but thought this interesting . This paper in 2020 estimated bees contribute 235 - 577 billion dollars to global food production https://t.co/QQYUtYOlrX. Which today would be max 724 billion dollars. Musk is thought to be worth 676 to 850 billion.

Also to avoid confusion. That is not a picture of me 😁

Super excited to share our new study from the @JD_Buenrostro Lab in @Nature! We developed a computational method for tracking transcription factor and nucleosome binding using single-cell ATAC-seq and deep learning.

Excited to share my PhD findings! We discovered that air #pollution alters the biofilm formation of #bee gut commensal Snodgrassella and disrupts the bumblebee gut #microbiome - highlighting new environmental impacts on pollinators and microbial ecology.

LEMUR is a tool to analyze multi-condition single-cell data and model differential expression as a continuous function of the cell-state space.

Two stages of evolution... @GrantKinsler @gsherloc @PetrovADmitri use #ExperimentalEvolution in yeast to show that while 1st-step mutants appear pleiotropic in nature, 2nd-step mutations show a shift towards modular adaptation #PLOSBiology https://t.co/1kYZ6pIXi0

@KlaraH_lab @ERC_Research Congrats 🥳

[Klara Hlouchova lab @KlaraH_lab]

Thank you @ERC_Research, feeling truly challenged by this project and can't wait to see it unfold 🪁 The list of people to thank for the support is way too long, but I'm super grateful for everyone there ❤️

What gets erased when you integrate single cell data, and can you recover it? Finally, we know what happens and how to recover the lost signals. So excited to share CellANOVA, published online today in NBT! https://t.co/IBYxBXt2PX

Recent studies have revealed unexpected Y chromosome diversity and suggest that the Y may play an outsized role in evolution. @_Axeman_and I wrote this perspective for @EvolLetterswith a few suggestions and requests. https://t.co/0nhHpQctXt Images by

Stronger promoters not only transcribe more RNA but also show higher effective translation rates.
