We are recruiting! Looking for passionate, curious postdocs to investigate a) Antibiotic tolerance in TB and b) Fundamental ribosome biology in TB.
Please contact to discuss informally. My lab has a strong track record in helping trainees transition to independence.
Pioneer studying Mycobacterium #tuberculosis, Sabine Ehrt has lead substantial discoveries on this death-causing pathogen – she shared her experience in this spotlight by @DrBommel 👇

Excited to share our paper now out in @NatureMicrobiol https://t.co/eIwZzabeI7. We used our CG screening and clinical Mtb genomics method to reveal novel mechanisms of drug resistance and identify a new opportunity to potentially use clarithromycin in TB treatment
Excited to share our latest research paper spearheaded by @ninjaaaaainny and @NickPoulton6, now on @biorxiv_micrbio. This work is part of our collaborative quest to understand the genetic underpinnings of antibiotic resistance in M. #tuberculosis. https://t.co/dhUUXXPaUe
The first ever @RockLabTB research paper is out in @CellCellPress https://t.co/FGVQZbQ8ZL A herculean effort co-led by PhD student Barbara Bosch & bioinformatician Michael A. DeJesus. Here’s a summary of our quest to identify the (genetic) Achilles’ heel(s) of M. #tuberculosis.
Do ribosomes care about the aminoacyl group on the tRNA? Dogma says no: they only care about matching mRNA codon to tRNA anticodon.
Our new preprint suggests otherwise: rRNA methylation contributes to ribosomal discrimination of mischarged tRNA!

@EhrtSchnapLab@healycl This involved great efforts from former lab members. And I feel great honor to make contributions to this amazing work. Thanks everyone!
