Check out some of the findings from my PhD focusing on the role of Tribbles1 in mycobacterial infection! 🦠⬇️

Thanks to @elkslab_sheff @EndreKissToth1 and all the authors!

[Phil Elks @elkslab_sheff]

Very happy to have our new findings on Tribbles1, uncovering roles in host-pathogen interaction, out in @elife. Fab work by @ffionruth and great collaboration with @EndreKissToth1 and @mnoursad labs! Full manuscript here:
