Thrilled to be awarded a U19 (CARBIRU) to study antibiotic heteroresistance by @NIAIDNews with an amazing team of colleagues from @EmoryARC and @UAC_UU!

We are hiring motivated postdocs and techs (DM for now, postings coming).

Please RT and join us in studying heteroresistance!

Beyond the $85 billion dedicated to transit, the #AmericanJobPlan is a rare opportunity to plan transport and land-use together. To maximize its impact, the plan should build affordable housing near transit and dedicate road-space to buses and trains.

Drug resistant Candida auris can be hard to treat, so it’s great to see synergy in this antifungal combination! Nicely done @SIDDHARTHJAGGA1

Very excited to share our latest work in Francisella tularensis where we utilized a highly saturated Tn-Seq screen to uncover new players in GSH catabolism. Fun collab with the Dove and Ramsey labs! #francisella #glutathione #metabolism #PLoSPathogens

Excited to share a preprint with some of my thesis work done in the @LandickLab! We used cool techniques to unravel connections between H-NS filament structure and DNA sequence. Thanks to my co-authors for making this project fun! @cmhustmyer @mikebwolfe @JessenErik

Excited to share our study on anti-bacterial weapon! We develop “Programmed Inhibitor Cells“ that direct the Type VI secretion system against specified target cells #T6SS

@jess_scientist 😍😭ditto!! I literally can't wait to see what you do next. Also, perhaps not coincidentally, I ate exclusively hot chips and oreos on the drive over

[Hannah Ratner @HannahKRatner]

Thank you @DWeissLab @VictorBand3 @EdgarSherman7 @jess_scientist @SIDDHARTHJAGGA1 @DAEHUFFY @jake_choby Carter Abbott, Chui-Yoke Chin, Emily Crispell, Julia Gross😊

Just arrived in Seattle and excited to start a post-doc in the Mougous Lab @UW! Leaving Atlanta was bittersweet but I am so grateful to all the wonderful people in my PhD lab @DWeissLab that helped shape me into a scientist and have been an absolute blast to work with!

[Hannah Ratner @HannahKRatner]

@thesciencebae @laneygradschool 💗 1. thank you for sharing what happened 2. it was awesome to go through grad school with you and the rest of our cohort!

@DWeissLab and I compared the roles of the native #Cas9 and #Cas12a CRISPR-Cas systems in Francisella novicida -- they both restrict DNA but only Cas9 alters virulence https://t.co/FnIZmnEunJ

For some non-Coronavirus reading, ever wonder why bus ridership is declining throughout the country despite population migration towards cities? Check out this article in the @UpshotNYT @nytimes https://t.co/bgvwVcdsQH

[Simon Berrebi @SimonBerrebi]

NYT reporters @emilymbadger and @qdbui wrote a fascinating article featuring our paper with @transitmom, "Who's ditching the bus?" (coming out in Transportation Research Part A, @Transport_ELS). 1/4

Check out our paper with @LeRh_A @manue_lab describing how Cas9 naturally regulates transcription in a bacterial pathogen! Out in today's issue of @MolecularCell @SIDDHARTHJAGGA1 @DWeissLab https://t.co/OVLpDeRWPy

Feeling refreshed and inspired after learning about so much great science at #EESMicrobiology in @embl Heidelberg! It was a fantastic last conference of graduate school 🤓
