So proud of former #QuaveLab @FulbrightPrgrm fellow @fab_ethnopharm (Dr. Fabien Schultz) on his team's exciting new publication concerning self-medication behaviors in chimpanzees 🐵🌿⚕️ Note that the study included #herbarium specimens to document which species are used by chimps, which were then also subjected to chemical & pharmacological analyses 🙌 1/2 science.org/content/article/…

Days in the field are long ones! After collecting herbarium, DNA, and bulk specimens (for chemical analysis) in the field, the samples have to be processed (sorted, chopped, and set out to air dry). There have been many long nights of work until 2-3 AM finishing up the process this week. Next trip, I definitely need my army of students along to help 😄 #expedition #sardinia #ethnobotany #plants #QuaveLab @EmoryHerbarium

What a fun afternoon!! My 🧠 was definitely tired after delivering an hour long scientific lecture and 30 minutes of engaging Q&A in Italian—but I loved the opportunity to share @EmoryUniversity #QuaveLab research with this amazing group of scholars and students at Univ. Sassari! I’m so excited to build new collaborations with the talented scientists here 🙌🙌 #ethnobotany #naturalproducts #DrugDiscovery #AMR

So proud of my talented #QuaveLab team on their awesome poster presentation today at the Society for Investigative Dermatology conference in Dallas today! Way to go Jade and Na-mi!! #eczema #dermatology #microbiome #drugdiscovery #emory

So proud to be included among the 2024 CNN Champions for Change! Tune in this Saturday, 5/11 from 5-6 PM ET on @CNN to see a sneak peak of the #QuaveLab feature and then the main show on 5/18 at 9 PM ET. @EmoryUniversity @EmoryHerbarium #ethnobotany #AMR #DrugDiscovery #pharmacognosy

Huge congratulations to @emorycollege senior Ben Kittleson on a successful defense of his honors thesis in #biology!! Ben earned Highest Honors for his body of work on bioactive small molecules for Cutibacterium acnes. His next step is to prepare a paper for publication. All of us in #QuaveLab are super proud of you, Ben!

The #QuaveLab has a new paper out in the journal, Urogynecology. We examined E. coli isolates from 40 post-menopausal UTI patients for persister cells. We also tested different 1st-line abx for their capacity to generate more persisters. Check out today's newsletter for more info on the paper. #AMR #antibiotics #UTI #infections

Such a fun visit to McMaster University today! Loved sharing work from #QuaveLab and learning about the incredible research on #antibiotic #DrugDiscovery at the David Braley Centre for Antibiotic Discovery 💡 Thanks Dr. Eric Brown for the seminar invite!

🎥And that’s a wrap! Day 2 of filming #QuaveLab @EmoryUniversity & @EmoryHerbarium with @CNN is complete. Next month we’ll be in the field at @thejonesctr 🌿🌿 Can’t wait to share the piece with you all! Airing in May!

Today we celebrated the life of Yinxin "Jimmy" Xu. Jimmy was an outstanding young scientist. He graduated from @emorycollege in 2019 w/ honors in chemistry from research in #QuaveLab. He was completing a PhD at @UK_COP w/ Prof. Jon Thorson lab. RIP Jimmy. You are deeply missed 💕

I’m so honored to be elected to the @AcadofInventors 🤩 🙏 Thank you to the incredible team of scientists in #QuaveLab past & present who have pushed the boundaries of natural products drug discovery! 💡 💊 #ethnobotany #pharmacognosy #WomenInSTEM @EmoryCSHH @EmoryDerm

Happy holidays from the #QuaveLab 🎄🧑‍🎄

Back in #ATL this eve & just wrapped a great shoot with @smallrfilm in #QuaveLab @EmoryUniversity! I’m excited to contribute to this exciting film project on microbes & innovation! 🔬⚕️🧪

Fun #photoshoot today in #QuaveLab at @EmoryUniversity . Keep an eye out for a special feature in the December issue of @AtlantaMagazine !! I had a blast working with Ben Rollins photography 🔬🥼🧪👩‍🔬

Huge congratulations to Dr. Couch (@cateinthelab) on the successful defense of her PhD dissertation in Molecular and Systems Pharmacology @EmoryMsp at @EmoryUniversity !! All of us in #QuaveLab are proud of you! #womeninstem #womeninscience #emory #phd #dissertation

Congrats to @EmoryMsp #QuaveLab @thejonesctr PhD candidate @PlantChemistry on the very cool coverage of this latest pub🥳 Resistance to anti-fungal drugs is an emerging threat in healthcare. It's exciting to see how discoveries like this one could pave the way to new meds! #AMR

My first #QuaveLab group photos at @EmoryUniversity! 10 years flies by! Many changes in faces over the years and lots of exciting science explored. How far we've come! #sciencetwitter #science #research #ethnobotany #pharmacognosy

Fun #QuaveLab lunch celebrating @FulbrightPrgrm visiting scholar Aygun from Azerbaijan !! We’ll miss you Aygun! #emory @emoryuniversity #fulbright #science #microbiology #naturalproducts

And it begins! Great kick-off for the science track tonight at @DragonCon @dconscitrack !! Come see me at the con! My final schedule is posted below. #DragonCon2023 #science #QuaveLab #scicomm #ATL🐲🌿⚕️

Proud to have @EmoryMsp @EmoryLGS grad student @WJ_Crandall presenting the latest in #chemistry tech innovations from #QuaveLab at @pharmacognosy #ASP2023 🙌 Thanx to @NIH_NCCIH for supporting our research!
