My lab is up and running and just needs enthusiastic phage biologists to populate it! Contact me or apply in the link if you are interested in a postdoc exploring plasmid-dependent phage biology in beautiful (and super affordable!) upstate New York🍎https://t.co/nYWsBgNih4 1/3

My lab's first big research paper is now out in @mbiojournal! 🎉
We ask: how can Legionella antagonize other microbes with reactive oxygen species without hurting themselves? Answer: several dynamics seem to generate a 'toxic moat' of ROS around producers

Hurray, big congrats to @MicroMische, who became the first Levin lab member to pass their comps exam today!
🎉🥳🎉🥳🎉🥳🍦

This is shocking. Haifan is one of the most generous and kind people I've met. Now the damage has been done. I hope that truth and justice will prevail

#proudPI hits keep on coming! Today is a big day. Congratulations to @darian_doakes for receiving an NSF GRFP award! And congrats to @MicroMische for their Honorable Mention! 🥳🎉🍾

@Nick_Dillon_PhD @victornizet @elisabetbjanes WOOHOO 🎉

[Mische 🏳️‍⚧️ @MicroMische]

AHHHHH I'M A FIRST AUTHOR!!! Major appreciation to my mentors @Nick_Dillon_PhD and @victornizet 🥳🥳

[Nick Dillon @Nick_Dillon_PhD]

Our paper was just published describing how the biological buffer bicarbonate impairs the activity of delafloxacin. This is @MicroMische 1st 1st author and my 1st senior author publication! Big thanks to @victornizet, and @elisabetbjanes for all the help! https://t.co/ebvU0Py88N

@Nick_Dillon_PhD is a great mentor! I had a great time working with him as an undergrad and now he has his own lab at UTD. Definitely check out his lab if you're interested in bacterial pathogen work!!

[Nick Dillon @Nick_Dillon_PhD]

(1/2) Are you interested in pursuing novel treatment strategies against leading antibiotic resistant bacterial pathogens, while simultaneously living in one of the best metros in the country? If so, the Dillon lab at UTD is hiring a research technician! https://t.co/1XGGNMSNWe

[Tera Levin @tera_levin]

Today is 🦖🦕 themed day in the Levin lab!
@MicroMische took it to the next level with the shirt, socks, and shoes combo!

[Mische 🏳️‍⚧️ @MicroMische]

@tera_levin and an earring! 🦕 a great day for dinos

@jkimmey @tera_levin @victornizet Thanks! it really is a small world hahaha great to hear from you @jkimmey

[Tera Levin @tera_levin]

📢 Our lab at Pitt is hiring a new research technician!

Come help us learn about battles between microbes and eukaryotes and how that shapes evolution!
Applications due by Aug 6.

Feel free to reach out to me with any questions! Pls RT

Going on record - it is premature to have fully vaccinated folks be mask free indoors. Can we please normalize mask wearing? 1-no way to know who is fully vaccinated and who isn't. 2-as I've said all year multiple barriers to transmission are important! SARS2 is still spreading..

I just signed up to be a mentor for the National Summer Undergraduate Research Project! Deadline is tomorrow if anyone else would like to join in the fun! #NSURP2021 #nolabnoproblem https://t.co/03BWVHvSeJ

[Mische 🏳️‍⚧️ @MicroMische]

@EleanorWang Congrats on the first of many to come 🥳

My final article before becoming a News Desk staff writer. Hoping to keep writing over the summer!

[The Pitt News @ThePittNews]

A team of researchers has recently shown seven independent virus variant lineages across the United States, which have evolved a mutation in the same place on the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein.

Check out my first attempt at news writing about the super cool SARS-CoV2 sequencing and evolution work done @MiGScenter

Big thanks to @vscooper
