Incoming SNSF Ambizione group leader at EPFL. Interested in bacteria-host interactions in health and disease.

[Elisabetta Cacace @ElisCa960]

Excited to announce my upcoming @snsf_ch Ambizione research group at @EPFL_en on bacteria-host interactions, combining systems approaches and microphysiological models.
🚨 We have an open PhD position! More info on projects and how to apply here: https://t.co/ym5YwZjC99

🚨🔬Excited to share our new paper now out in @NatureMicrobiol!

Using Tn-seq + live imaging in engineered airway organoids, we explored the fitness tradeoffs P. aeruginosa faces while growing and surviving antibiotic treatment on the mucosal surface.

Exciting news!

@HausmannAnnika will be joining the Mucosal immunology team @ETH in November as a junior group leader to establish a group working in microbiota-epithelial crosstalk.

Fully funded PhD position available! Please RT

New review out in @ScienceMagazine from Jacob Wilde and Kevin Foster, that I had the honor to meddle in as the resident immunologist.

What possibilities do hosts have to influence their microbiomes?

May contain pandas...

Enjoy!

I was asked by @NatureSMB to write a commentary on the future of structural biology which I am unsure about. I wrote about collaborative research instead. It is not open access but it can be read via this link https://t.co/baHB08gY96

[Elisabetta Cacace @ElisCa960]

@StefanBassler @TypasLab @embl @UniHeidelberg @EMBLHeidelberg Many congrats Stefan!!!

Do you want to run a microbial GWAS but are put off by installing a dozen different bioinformatic tools, are unsure about best practices, and how to transform the list of threshold passing variants into a neat annotated table?

Then we have just the thing for you!

[Aaron Weimann 🇺🇦 @aaron_weimann]

Today in @ScienceMagazine, we report how a bacteria has evolved into a major human pathogen over the last 200 years. Read on, this is going to be an adventurous ride 1/n! https://t.co/AFWgJUiIpS

@liyuping927 @biozentrum @NCCR_AntiResist @UniBasel_en @ElginKorkmazhan Congrats Yuping!!! You’re always welcome to visit in Zurich :)

[Clavellab @clavellab]

The lab is recruiting (postdoc level) 👇 Join us: we love good science and there is a great team spirit 💫 https://t.co/DXvX6cQUG3; https://t.co/alwHJIilpK

[Yoann Santin @santin_yoann]

Inspiring essay by Roberto Kolter. This should be taught before university: knowing how to ask the right questions, the ones we're interested in, not just those for a 'good' paper. This makes a good researcher, IMO. https://t.co/ccUg68VAK3

@KostChristian I use this for rectangular 384 or 1536, might need some tweaking for square plates to place the grid correctly, but it’s quite versatile if e.g. you want to use opacity instead of colony size https://t.co/wC22A3NIRX

[Elisabetta Cacace @ElisCa960]

@AnaelleFait On to the next Anaëlle! Today also started with grant rejection for me 🫣

[Elisabetta Cacace @ElisCa960]

Excited to present my latest work today at #nacarb2024 in Ascona!

New preprint from the lab:
Microbial interactions affect the tempo and mode of antibiotic resistance evolution. https://t.co/OWDnSHOf0p
