This new mBio review proposes that amoeba-microbe interactions are a major “training ground” for the evolution, selection, adaptation & emergence of microbial pathogens with pathogenic tools to infect mammalian hosts. Read the article: asm.social/1Yf

I'm exceedingly excited to part of a NASA CiBS to advance space biomanufacturing, together with Prof. Tang, Menezes, Mark Blenner 🏳️‍🌈🇺🇦🧬, et al.! My first grant as Assistant Professor UF Microbiology UF IFAS Solutions FLORIDA, just in time for the official launch of @ufastraeus also featured by University of Florida Research!

Interested in how enterococci utilize heme? In this review, Jose Lemos 🇧🇷🇺🇸 and I describe the known hemoproteins of E. faecalis and the uneven distribution of these proteins amongst the other enterococci. #FEMSmicroBlog fems-microbiology.org/femsmicroblog-…

I was supposed to have an NIH study section (KEDD) today but it was "postponed TBD" yesterday. NIH can't make awards if it can't publicly announce its study section and Council meetings in the Federal Register. No meeting has been added since Jan 21 thetransmitter.org/funding/federa…

About a month after Donald Trump took office as the 47th US president, almost all grant-review meetings remain suspended at the US National Institutes of Health (NIH), preventing the world’s largest public funder of biomedical research from spending much of its US$47 billion

Dr. Jose Lemos 🇧🇷🇺🇸➡️2025 American Academy of Microbiology Fellow. Fellows are elected thru a highly selective peer-review process based on their records of scientific achievement & contributions that have advanced microbiology. Congratulations, Dr. Lemos! ⤵️ dental.ufl.edu/2025/02/21/lem…

NIH funding creates medicines, jobs, and economic growth

Sometimes we forget about the importance of oral health, especially for adolescents. Support oral health research to keep our most vulnerable out of the hospital or staying home from school with something as simple as tooth decay! #SupportOralHealthResearch

President Trump and Elon Musk’s funding cuts to groundbreaking medical research do NOT Make America Great. That’s why I’m on the Senate floor introducing a resolution pledging support for NIH & asking for immediate passage. Watch. x.com/i/broadcasts/1…

US President Donald Trump is taking a wrecking ball to science and to international institutions. The global research community must take a stand against these attacks. go.nature.com/3DhcYGb

dyk that women were excluded from clinical trials until the ‘90s 🤯. This had huge consequences for women’s health. The NIH Sex as a Biological Variable policy was meant to ensure female inclusion in studies & now it appears it’s being quietly dismantled. thetransmitter.org/policy/exclusi…

An in depth expose of the attack on and illegal halting of NIH funding! For so long there’s been bipartisan support for science and medicine. This is not the way to enact reform..and it is devastating science in the US, especially medical schools theatlantic.com/health/archive…

These NIH grants studied the biological effects of hormones in animals not transgender identity. Research on hormone treatments advances scientific understanding, but sex-related biology in animals does not equate to gender studies. Misrepresenting this fuels misinformation.

In an unprecedented move, the US National Institutes of Health has begun mass terminations of research grants that fund active scientific projects because they no longer meet “agency priorities”. go.nature.com/4i2EaIb

Proud of my undergrads presenting their research!
