🚨 New preprint! 🚨

How can we compare the metabolic capabilities of different organisms without getting lost in the complexity of genome-scale models?

[Evangelia Vayena @EVayena]

We present NIS, a framework that distills GEMs into interpretable modules, enabling direct cross-species comparisons of fueling pathways, biosynthesis, and environmental exchanges.

Very happy to see my first postdoc publication out from the Rabinowitz lab. Shoutout to my amazing colleague and co-first author @Won_Dong_Lee who already did a great job highlighting our key findings. Check out our paper to learn more about lactate homeostasis.

Excited to share our preprint on boosting p-coumaric acid production in S. cerevisiae! 🎉 In collaboration with Irina Borodina's group (@Irina__Borodina), we used our NOMAD framework for strain design strategies. Read more: https://t.co/OhIDbT4kGN

🚨🔬Excited to share our new paper now out in @NatureMicrobiol!

Using Tn-seq + live imaging in engineered airway organoids, we explored the fitness tradeoffs P. aeruginosa faces while growing and surviving antibiotic treatment on the mucosal surface.

These Pseudomonas putida F1 cells have been engineered to fluoresce under blue light. After a few hours of growth, they become so numerous and bright that they are visible to the naked eye. 👀We thank Tania Miguel Trabajo, UNIL, for the picture!

Pareidolia is our human tendency to see meaning where there is none. In this image, you're actually looking at an agarose patch just 1 cm in diameter, covered in millions of bacterial cells (the bright white area)! 🦠💡

We are thrilled to announce that our generative ML method for kinetic modeling (https://t.co/VTbFKoArEq) has been accepted to @NatureCatalysis. Congratulations to Subham (@astro_dank), Bharath (@bharathnarayana), Michael (@moret1788), Vassily (@Vassily_13), and Misko (@Misko_L34)
