#BIOL134 students: I don’t know of a better segue to our most recent lecture on microbe-microbe interactions than this. This is so cool.

New preprint! A new direction for my research program: Bacteria can use antagonism to forage for nutrients in microbial communities. Shoot spearguns with toxins into other cells and leak out nutrients!
