Other than @KarinaXavierLab and @Biolluminator many Basslerites (@papenfortlab @Sampriti_M @NinaMolinHK @WatersLabMSU, Jing Yan, Brian Hammer), and many QS experts have contributed to this issue. Personal favorite is from @FuquaClay. Go check it out!
Summer reading: in this editorial together with @Biolluminator Julia Van Kessel and @Tufts_NgLab Wai-Leung we wrote our thoughts about Bonnie’s @Qsense career and our amazing journal through her lab onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…

Excited to share our newest preprint reporting that P. aeruginosa senses Staphylococcal secreted cytotoxic peptides through “competition sensing” and preempts competitor attack by systematically arming cells with type six secretion systems (T6SS). biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

US DOE posted then-and-now feature about its 2012 Early Career Research Program award recipient @mckinlab and his research into how microbial species might work better together than alone to produce hydrogen gas biofuel. go.iu.edu/4DgC @IUCollege @IUScienceNews @IUImpact

Microbes as work colleagues? @IndianaUniv professor James McKinlay studies cooperative microbial relationships to improve biofuels' cost and sustainability. #EarlyCareer energy.gov/science/articles/…

Really looking forward to the 9th ASM Conference on Biofilms @2022Biofilms in Charlotte NC this coming week. @MicroKLV and the organizing committees (including early career) have lots of great science (400 enrolled) on deck plus other activities in store. Gonna be great.

If we think about scientists and trainees as microbes: are we giving them the things they need to grow?

Lessons from plants and microbes: our environments and our ability to react to them and succeed are connected.
