Can mycobacteria form viable cells that lack major cell wall components? The answer is Yes! However, such wall-deficient cells are not detectable by conventional diagnostics. So excited to share our findings on mycobacterial cell wall-deficiency at @biorxiv_micrbio a 🧵(1/12)
Yeahhh my PhD thesis is finally here!!😁On to the next chapter: I am looking for a microbiology Post-Doc or research position in industry in The Netherlands! Please message me for more information or if you know an interesting job position! Sharing is appreciated! #OpenToWork
Woohoo!! My SEM image won 3rd prize in the 2023 NEMI competition 🤩🎉
It's called "Embracing the mycobacterial wall-deficient lifestyle", and it shows Mycobacterium tuberculosis cells in the wall-deficient (orange🟠) and walled (blue🟦) state, covered by matrix (green).
🔥🔬What are the mind-blowing secrets of crafting synthetic microbial communities?🤔🦠
