Our postdoc, Gabrielle, received an NSF Postdoctoral Research Fellowship in Biology (PRFB) to support her research on microbial life in extreme conditions in the next three years in our lab. Congratulations!!

[CMU Mellon College of Science @CmuScience]

.@Physics_CMU postdoctoral fellow Gabrielle Illava knows a lot about pressure, and she uses her knowledge to study how cells form in the harshest environments.

Welcome to our incoming grad students! Can you tell them apart from two new staff members and 5 new faculty members?

[Fangwei Si @sifangwei]

@bozdags @NIH This is so helpful. Thank you so much for doing this!

[CMU Physics @Physics_CMU]

AI&Bio Workshop schedule up https://t.co/Zz4fd7hgdM. Register there; a few slots open for those who want to give talks. Also, students especially prepare a poster for the poster session (which will be accompanied by a reception). Limited travel funds available on request.

Woot! Our paper on cholesterol distribution in asymmetric membranes, spearheaded by Malavika Varma (not on Twitter 😭) is online in @BiophysJ!

Obviously, time for a Tweetorial!

Getting a job in academia is a soul-sucking process. Here, I have compiled some resources I found useful, practical (and hopefully accessible) advice, and things I wish I had known ahead of time:

Thrilled to share our latest preprint on the emergence of super-exponential growth in bacterial cells, and how noise is regulated in bacterial growth and morphogenesis. Solo effort by Graduate student @CallaghanCylke

[Fangwei Si @sifangwei]

@Bridges_Bio @CMU_Bio @CmuScience Congrats, Drew! Looking forward to chatting with you!

[Fangwei Si @sifangwei]

Our lab at CMU is looking for postdocs to join us! Projects will be discovering quantitative laws connecting cellular organization and fitness in bacteria using multidisciplinary tools. Please click the link below for detailed descriptions. Please retweet!
