Today was our last day sampling in the beautiful Puna of Argentina for the #MICROSIC project. It was an amazing trip, and I can't wait to see all of the results to come!

We are scouting for a PhD student in antiphage immunity. Starting spring 2025 at @TartuUniversity, secondments at @lunduniversity. Please contact me with i) CV and ii) max 2-page cover letter (why you, why this topic and why our team) at [email protected]. RT appreciated!

[Jens Bosse @bosse_lab]

We have two open PhD positions in the lab! One together with @LandauMeytal on viral amyloids and one on phase separation of viral replication compartments! See https://t.co/SuuTVmzMvh for viral amyloids, and PM me for the second!

Are you going to #ISME19? Will you present a poster? Do you use #anvio for your research?

If yes, please consider filling out this form so we can bring stickers to your poster, say hi, and ask your advice on how to make anvi'o better.

Globally occurring viral infections create ribosome-deprived bacterial cells

a.k.a. "zombie cells"!

Increadible story about the discovery of a protein fractal!👇🏻👇🏻🥳

[Jan Brüwer @JanBruewer]

How many SAR11 cells are phage-infected in the environment? And what are zombies🧟‍♂️?

We studied phage infection in SAR11 using the🔬. Up to 19% of SAR11 cells were phage infected and many host cells were devoid of ribosomes🧟‍♂️!

What else did we find? A 🧵

In our article published today @Nature , we report complete all-atom structural models of a fully packaged bacteriophage particle. Congratulations to Kush Coshic on his first publication! Many thanks to Chris Maffeo and David Winogradoff for pushing this 6-year project forward.

Take a look! The gut virome is altered in a mouse
model of chronic stress and is associated with changes in behavioural and
immune response, which can be restored using fecal virome transfer. New paper by @jfcryan @UCC https://t.co/daPyObrgeR

We are excited to finally share the story @JoshMattMills has been working on for the last few years! Here, we report on the archaeal small GTPase driving extracellular vesicle production. https://t.co/NWdKJBSseX

[Joshua Mills @JoshMattMills]

📢I am so excited to announce the publication of my work characterizing extracellular vesicles of Euryarchaeota! Here, we identify an archaeal small GTPase directly involved in vesicle production with similarities to eukaryotic Arf GTPases.
