Delighted to share our new preprint.

It started with a weird observation, only made possible due to my ‘error’ while following a simple protocol.

>10,000 swarm plates later, we show that intracellular iron can act as memory in E. coli.

@UjRathore you certainly are a leader to watch out for :) :)

Humbled & grateful to have received the Gladstone Institutes 2022 Distinguished Achievement in Scientific Leadership Award! Big thanks to all my amazing colleagues @MarsonLab @KroganLab @GladstoneInst for their support!

[Shweta Karambelkar @shweta3003]

Thank you @joeBondyDenomy for being such an amazing mentor and team builder!! I wish the lab loads of success and exciting discoveries! I will miss all of you and am grateful for the great time I had in the JBD lab.

[Joe Bondy-Denomy @joeBondyDenomy]

Lab lunch today to welcome new rotation students and wish super star post-doc ⁦@shweta3003⁩ the best in her new life in industry! :)

@Kuldeep_R_Gupta @Rego_Lab @celenagwin @ymoritalab @JunLiuLab great work, Kuldeep! It touches and connects so many interesting aspects- lipid transport, asymmetric cell division, antibiotic susceptibility, and so on!

The final version is out @Rego_Lab
@celenagwin @ymoritalab @JunLiuLab !
An essential periplasmic protein coordinates lipid trafficking and is required for asymmetric polar growth in mycobacteria https://t.co/PqFawxKonR

@AdairLBorges @UCSF I always thought that UCSF stepped in to pay the bills. sounds like such a stressful situation to deal with!

[Shweta Karambelkar @shweta3003]

a beautiful story on how efflux promotes antibiotic resistance. comes from the same lab that introduced necrosignaling- the phenomenon where dying bacteria engage in altruistic signaling!

Thrilled to share our latest work @MolecularCell

We show how efflux accelerates evolution of antibiotic resistance. “Phenotype surfing”, a new model, explains how these mutants survive extinction in absence of antibiotics.🧵

@osuna_bettie @FounderLedBio @subaita_rahman @kulesatony @kt_mulligan @pillar_vc congratulations Bettie! Please count me in!!

[Joe Bondy-Denomy @joeBondyDenomy]

phiKZ jumbophage is no longer intractable! We desperately needed a way to mutate it for our studies and @jingwen_guan made it happen.

Kudos to her for joining the lab the day everything shutdown and still producing great work during her post-doc! s/o to @felixbiotech collab!

[Beatriz A. Osuna 🇲🇽 @osuna_bettie]

We’ve been hard at work building the next generation of RNA therapeutics this past year—super exciting to now see our efforts contribute to the launch of Orbital Tx! 😁 Happy to chat if you’re interested in joining a great team of scientists that’s passionate about RNA tech! 🙌

[David Weinberg @DWeinberg305]

Thrilled to be part of today’s launch of Orbital Therapeutics through its acquisition of Circ Bio. We’ll be ramping up hiring in both South San Francisco and Cambridge - please reach out directly or email [email protected] to learn more! https://t.co/8fBIHZRFGN

@joeBondyDenomy this is awesome, Neha! I love the idea! Congratulations!

[Shweta Karambelkar @shweta3003]

@LinaMLion Congratulations Lina and Jacob!!! You look awesome, Lina��!

[Shweta Karambelkar @shweta3003]

@ErinHuiting I too got that feeling after i read her post. So i decided to bring it up. Lol 😂

[Shweta Karambelkar @shweta3003]

@ErinHuiting congratulations on winning the poster award Erin👏👏!

[Shweta Karambelkar @shweta3003]

Looking for an easy method to quantitatively study protein-ligand interactions? one that works great even with cell extracts and impure protein preps, and needs tiny amounts of protein?
Read my protocol https://t.co/uyVIAV1zXG
Thanks @shubha_udupa, @bioprotocolbyte, @NanoTemper
