Great collaboration with @BrunLabCaulo for resolving the Tad pilus machine structure by cryo-electron tomography. Beautiful work by graduate students James Iarocci and Ryu Williston from our lab!

We're currently looking for a PostDoc position at @UMontreal and @Mila_Quebec to work on a multi-modal bacteria representation for anti-biotic discovery, including multiple modalities:
- Phenomics
- Transcriptiomics
- Structural bio
- Viability curves
- ADME
The work will be done alongside biologists from brunlab.com
DM me for more info

2 days left. Asst/Assoc Prof position in bacteriology, Université de Montréal. Deadline ***Nov. 15*** come join our growing community of bacteriologists. BTW, à propos of nothing, Canada is the USA’s Bluesky!
6 Nov 2024
Please RT: Nov. 15 deadline! We are building a strong bacteriology community @UMontreal @med_umontreal, including recent hires @S_vanTeeffelen @FredoLeRoux & myself. Moving to Montréal in 2018 is one of the best career decisions I made. Come join us! jobs.sciencecareers.org/job/…

How does your favorite species elongate?🧵"Phenotypic plasticity in bacterial elongation among closely related species" by @mariedelaby, @liuyang1125 et al buff.ly/48Kw96x. How do cells elongate, all over, poles, middle? Close species do it the same way right? Not quite!

Not only do these three closely related species have different modes of cell elongation but they also have different morphologies. Could the elongation mechanisms in these species influence their morphology or vice versa?

Expanding our analysis, we find a distribution of elongation modes, suggesting their evolution is shaped by multiple, independent events, implying a high degree of phenotypic plasticity in the regulation of localized elongation modes. How does your favorite species elongate?

The missing piece in the bacterial #ESCRT-III story.. #Vipp1 forms dynamic spiral filaments on membrane! Spirals are springs that drive 3D ring formation in the spiral centre! 😎😵💫 Wonderful collaboration with @Colom_D @RouxLab… 1/2
