This year, two deserving ISB scientists were bestowed honors for giving back to #STEMeducation. sturkarslan @thaasophobia @SystemsEd isbscience.org/news/2022/07/1…

A new paper in nature Precision #Oncology provides a framework for applying #singlecell-based #precisionmedicine approaches to individual #GBM patients. nature.com/articles/s4169…. from Baliga Lab and Nitin Baliga ISB #CancerResearch #bioinfomatics #meded #scienceresearch

Join us 9/29 from 6-8pm for Reimagine. The program will feature an exclusive pre-recorded conversation with ISB President Dr. Jim Heath, Nobel laureate & distinguished immunologist @JimAllisonPhD & renowned cancer genomic scientist Lynda Chin. MD Anderson Cancer Center Heath Lab

And for the first time since 2019, we are opening our labs for tours! Throughout the night you’ll have the opportunity to take a tour of ISB and hear firsthand from our scientists about their exciting research projects. You won’t want to miss it! RSVP at isbscience.org/reimagine/.

Recently published work in EIC Jack Gilbert by Mario Arrieta-Ortiz, Min Pan, Amardeep Kaur, Evan Pepper-Tunick, Vivek Srinivas, Ananya Dash, Selva Rupa Christinal Immanuel, Nitin Baliga and colleagues from Inscripta, Inc. journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/ms…

I just showed my support for UNICEF and the children. Check out UNICEF USA to learn what they are doing, and how you can help too. unicefusa.org/?form=FUNNPGQX…

We're a little more than 24 hours away from Ignite STEM, an in-person event at ISB. Join us and hear from Drs. Jim Heath, Dr. Leroy Hood and Nitin Baliga, and watch the presentation of the Valerie Logan Leadership in Science Education Award. isbscience.org/ignite-stem/

We are hiring a postdoc in marine microbial ecology, in beautiful Portland, Oregon. Please check out the posting for more info and to apply! jobs.hrc.pdx.edu/postings/41785

Our findings reveal that disrupting the MtrA gene network makes the TB pathogen hypersusceptible to anti-TB drugs. Eliza Peterson ISB

Genetic tools probe microbial dark matter for mechanisms behind lifestyle of miniscule epibiotic bacteria living on surface of larger bacteria, including some in our mouths. Mougous Lab @UW_Microbiology #MicrobiomeCenter with ISB Cell tinyurl.com/th4vubvd

"While metagenomics can tell us which microbes live on and within our bodies, the DNA sequences alone do not give us insight into their beneficial or detrimental activities, especially for organisms that have never before been characterized." – Nitin Baliga, ISB Professor

Major breakthrough in our favorite model organisms! Ultrasmall epibionts #Saccharibacteria Candidate Phyla Radiation/#Patescibacteria.  Very happy to be part of work led by the mougouslab.org Yaxi Wang Nitin Baliga @UW_Microbiology cell.com/cell/fulltext/…

It's #CoralsWeek. Coral reefs are in trouble, but there is hope. We are invested in research that will help corals survive increasingly hot ocean temperatures.

Valenzuela et al. show how a few mutations in an evolved community can cause niche-differentiated ecotypes with interplay that improves productivity of the interacting community across sediment & groundwater subpopulations. Jacob Valenzuela Nitin Baliga nature.com/articles/s4146…

Our new study that was just published in Nature Communications shows how a microbial community increases productivity by dividing niche space through rapid evolution of spatial differentiated ecotypes.

Congratulations to Selva Rupa Christinal Immanuel for winning best poster at COBRA 2024 in San Diego. (📷: Rupa with Nitin Baliga, pictured at ISB) Rupa's poster reported findings from the recent Nature Communications paper out of the Baliga Lab that she co-authored with Jacob Valenzuela.
