Is it âwinner-takes allâ when the simplest living things compete? Check out my fresh publication on phage coexistence in Science and a thread belowđ§” science.org/doi/10.1126/scieâŠ
Check out the official Phage Names in Table S1, like Escherichia phage MiataMamis, that were inspired by loved ones and colleagues, and will soon be immortalized in the National Library of Medicine. đ
The final version of our paper on anti-CRISPRs "in disguise" as Cas proteins is out today in Nature! Congrats to Mark, Edith and the whole team! nature.com/articles/s41586-0âŠ
Postdocs: we want to start a NYC "Postdoc Night Science" forum where fellows meet monthly for a drink and fun practicing the creative process together with chalk talks and brainstorming. Sign up here: docs.google.com/forms/d/1V4_âŠ@KelseyRMonson is helping and we need more volunteers!
I am absolutely delighted to be joining the University of British Columbia next year as an Assistant Professor @ZoologyUBC.
We will study social evolution in viruses.
Version accepted for publication. We found that microbes change their allocation to different metabolic pathways with increasing temperatures affecting carbon use and community assembly journals.uchicago.edu/doi/abâŠ
So fun to present at the Social Lives of Viruses Conference! Even if I cant fully explain this tongue microbiome image. đ Thanks @AsherLeeks and @sociovirology for organizing #socialviruses
Revealing the unexpected: can some bacteriophages transiently infect Human cells?

Sharing the protocol we're using in the lab to rapidly & easily assemble combinatorial sets of microbial communities script to adapt the protocol to different situations. Hope it's useful to others. @the100footpole @jdiazc9@magdalenasrr @andrea_arrabal_
