Just a couple of cutie contaminants I felt deserved to be immortalized on the internet + the extremely high tech imaging apparatus we keep on hand to do so 🦠🥰

Another #ASMicrobe in the books, a bit closer to home this time :) Grateful always to my lab(s) and the ASM Ambassador program for their support in attending.

A study by @UABPathology researchers @Nature brings new understanding to how absorptive intestinal epithelial cells & T cells work together to defend the gut barrier against dangerous bacteria like E. coli, which can pose significant risks to human health. https://t.co/uC8g7bXzS7

A recent Nature publication from GS-4 MSTP student Garrett Wilson in the Weaver lab in the @UABPathology department was recently highlighted in UAB news. Congrats to Garrett and his colleagues on these exciting findings!

Wrapping up a very sweaty but productive few days at #ASMicrobe. So fun to share my work & explore the diversity of microbial research. Immensely grateful to the ASM Ambassadors and Future Leaders Mentoring Fellowship (FLMF) programs for their support in attending.

Mechanisms of probiotic action are not only context but also species (and often strain) specific. Come find me at P3.20 to discuss our progress investigating the protective mechanism of L. murinus V10 in the context of neonatal dysbiosis 🦠 #CSInfectionmicrobiome

Do you have some business style of clothing cluttering up your closet? Bring it to the Alys Stephen Center on March 30 and 31, and donate it to the Commission on the Status of Women's Suits for Success annual clothing drive.

Cigna uses an automated system that allows “medical directors” (doctors employed by @Cigna) to deny a claim in 1.2 seconds without opening the patient’s file.

Please read this, share it, and help us (metaphorically) burn these companies to the ground.

The @graymicrolab’s loss is @MCB_Illinois @illinoismcbgrad’s gain. Our undergrad-turned lab manager Abbi is off to grad school 🥹 SO well deserved.

[Sierra Hansen @sierrachansen]

@ladonnaap Yes! Confirmed with Wayne :)
