Believe it or not, I was a professional boxer from the age of 14 before moving into academia. Funny how experiences from such a different world can end up shaping the way I think and work as a researcher😃.

Norwich has a great structural biology community, join us :)
Tweeps, please spread the word. We're still looking at recruiting a structural biologist (any level) to study plant-pathogen protein complexes especially in the context of coevolution. Direct inquiries welcome.

Please include a cover letter.

Applicant from US welcome? medium.com/@kamounlab/2...

How Bacteria Outsmart Plants—Then Flee the Scene!

#MicroSky #PlantScience #Pseudomonas

Our new research in Nature Microbiology uncovers the sophisticated teamwork of Pseudomonas syringae, a notorious plant pathogen.

Pseudomonas syringae subpopulations cooperate by coordinating flagellar and type III secretion spatiotemporal dynamics to facilitate plant infection
Nature Microbiology - Single-cell gene expression analysis reveals phenotypic heterogeneity to enable bacterial specialization over the course of plant colonization.

So nice to see more and more work on visualizing interactions to dive into replication cycles… here with acanthamoeba and giant viruses ! Congrats @willemsenanouk.bsky.social !
New work out!

Spearheaded by Lotte, we have developed a single-molecule messenger RNA fluorescence in situ hybridisation (smFISH) protocol for #giantViruses in an #Acanthamoeba host.
