Excited to share: DNA glycosylases are diverse antiviral effectors. They recognize phage base modifications and initiate genome destruction. A structure‑guided approach made the scope of this discovery possible! 🧪 #phagesky doi.org/10.1101/2025... #phage #microbiology
Antiviral Defence is a Conserved Function of Diverse DNA Glycosylases
Bacteria are frequently attacked by viruses, known as phages, and rely on diverse defence systems like restriction endonucleases and CRISPR-Cas to survive. While phages can evade these defences by cov...

#WomenInScience inspired Halloween costume this year is Fanny Hess! In Koch's lab in the hot German summers, the gelatin used for bacterial cultures would melt. Fanny learned of agar - used to stiffen gelatin desserts - and brought that into the lab. Her ingenuity changed #microbiology forever! 🧪🔬🦠

List 3 things you can talk about for 3 hours without prep (although I would ask for water and talk slowly):
1) The Legion of Super-Heroes
2) Clinical microbiology
3) Doctor Who
As much as I would love to talk about Mage: The Ascension for 3 hours my memory sucks I just have enthusiasm

I had the pleasure of attending an knowledge-sharing session yesterday at URMAPha on Sample Management in Clinical Microbiology and Genomics — led by the team from CEBIOGE/URMAPha
High-quality genomics starts at the sample bench — not the sequencer

Pseudomonas aeruginosa lays down Psl exopolysaccharide as it crawls
Other cells detect and follow these trails using type IV pili pulling against adhesins like CdrA triggering c-di-GMP & cAMP surges to shift into early biofilm mode

Pseudomonas aeruginosa senses exopolysaccharide trails using type IV pili and adhesins during biofilm formation - Nature Microbiology
Opposing forces generated by exopolysaccharide trail binding versus type IV pilus retraction generate a high cyclic diGMP–high cyclic AMP state in Pseudomonas aeruginosa that promotes social motility.

From AI, AOC’s “ high school science project was on the effect of antioxidants on the lifespan of the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans (a type of roundworm). She won second place in the microbiology category at the 2007 Intel International Science and Engineering Fair (ISEF) for this research.” Dope.

Four years, countless experiments, one thesis later: I’m a doctor now.
I just defended my PhD in Microbiology at IRSD, supervised by Prof. Éric Oswald and Dr. @priscillabranchu.bsky.social. I’m excited for what’s next.
