Our study about S. aureus evolution on patients with atopic dermatitis is out! Check out a thread about all highlights by my awesome PI @conTaminatedsci back at @MIT. Shout out to @teresadefresa for enrolling patients, for @vedomics functional work, and the entire team. 🍾
Our paper on S aureus adaptation in atopic dermatitis is published in @cellhostmicrobe. Proud of this collaborative work led by @fm_key

Its been a while since the preprint, and there are some updates, so a thread is in order 🧵
I am delighted to share my first first-author and the first paper of the @gingerhowley lab published in Nature Communications this 20th of July. An 8000 years old genome reveals the Neolithic origin of the zoonosis Brucella melitensis :

First prehistoric Brucella genome from a sheep allows us to time stamp the evolution of a zoonotic pathogen and shows the power of moving ancient pathogen research into the zooarcheological record. Great work led by @GingerHowley & @louis_l_hote
Are you interested in mutualisms? Have you always wondered how these cooperative interactions emerge and coevolve?
If the answer to these questions is YES, then please consider joining my vibrant group as a PhD student.
Please RT.
