ICYMI: @KeitzLab on 'microdroplet encapsulation' and the ability to isolate or characterize bacteria with important roles in global metal cycling, wastewater treatment, or drug metabolism within the human gut...
PREPRINT OUT ✨ "hack" your microscope to work as a 3D printer! print micrometer sized features at cm scale. a method for easy and cheap microfabrication, with a focus on biological applications. THREAD ↓

Happy to add another journal cover to my portfolio, but mostly excited for everyone to read about @GinaPartipilo’s creative application of microfluidics for rapid screening of electroactive bacteria
Our high-throughput detection of EET paper is out now in AEM! Congratulations to @IsmarButSerious for a fantastic cover image! This was such a fun collaboration between the @KeitzLab and the @LabAlper! So excited to see this work out!
⚡️An electrifying start to the New Year! Check out the January issue of AEM, featuring a dynamic cover by artist Ismar Miniel. @TexasCHE and @ut_caee researchers describe the use of microdroplet emulsion sorting to identify new electroactive bacteria⚡️

Submitted my last manuscript of grad school and now I'm starting at the Turnbaugh group to study microbe/drug interactions in the gut at UCSF on Monday! What a great start to 2025! 🦠🔬
Our new paper from co-authors @GinaPartipilo and Sarah Coleman (@LabAlper) outlines the use of a linear mixed effects model for evaluating multi-input gene circuits! And @IsmarButSerious made a web-based platform to run your own new genetic circuits! https://t.co/VWmeIM0pPF
I'm thrilled that our work is now published in @NatureComms, where we repurposed the Csr Network to build post-transcriptional logic gates: https://t.co/9KAeSvht0p
We thrilled to share our latest work in @NatureComms, led by @TrevorRSimmons, in which we rewired CsrA to build designer post-transcriptional genetic circuits. Our approach supports the idea of co-opting native networks for complex bacterial computation. https://t.co/qSC2WkxF9u
we got the cover! elated to finally see this in print – huge congrats to @GinaPartipilo, artist extraordinaire @mister1smar, and all the co-authors @KeitzLab@RosalesGroup that made this work possible (1/3)
We are excited to share our latest preprint, led by @matsuri_rojano & @TrevorRSimmons, in which we identify concentration dependent regulation of CsrA on a novel mRNA target and repurpose this interaction to build a genetic BANDPASS Filter. https://t.co/j2wGfAI4nK #WhatStartsHere
So surreal to see my image on the cover of Nature Chemical Biology! Shoutout to @GinaPartipilo and @austinjgraham for leading a great project and all of the @KeitzLab members who made it possible. #sciart
Our October issue is live!

The cover depicts an engineered living material with controllable mechanical properties: Bacteria (orange) embedded in a hydrogel are programmed to control the expression of MtrC which regulates microbial respiration
Our methods group in the Keitz lab has been such a valuable experience and writing this article with my coworkers was so enjoyable! Huge thanks to @KeitzLab members @YangGaoPhD@IsmarButSerious@alexis_holwerda
