📚🌐Thrilled to share our newly published paper in Nature Microbiology in which we unravel how plasmids can tip the scales in microbial war and peace.🪖🦠 Big thanks to Gur's lab The Elia Lab Jens Walter Explore the threads below for key findings (1/6): nature.com/articles/s4156…

2023 was a (mostly) good year to us. I am so grateful to work with such a smart, inspiring, kind, and fun group of people. I can't wait to see what 2024 has in store for this team!

Out today! A Comment article in Nature Microbiology on #antibiotic discovery using in vitro models that mimic in-patient conditions 🤒💊 nature.com/articles/s4156…

Please Re-Post: PhD project - genetic dissection of the competitive interactions between P. aeruginosa and E. faecalis, a collaborative project with the fabulous Kline Lab (Kimberly Kline 🏔). Interested? --> DM me, earliest starting date April 2024

Interactions in microbial communities can be of competitive or beneficial nature. Kimberly Kline 🏔 and Patrick Hsien-Neng Kao explain on the #FEMSmicroBlog how two human pathogens interact and impact each other in infection sites. #FascinatingMicrobes fems-microbiology.org/femsmicroblog-…

Reminder to sign up for the 2024 Streptococcal GRS and GRC!

Mark your calendars - 10th ASM Conference on Biofilms (2025) - November 9-13. We will communicate the location for this conference in short order. #Biofilms2025

We're still pretty excited about all the new insights gained from this scRNAseq study of Enterococcus faecalis wound infection, now up on eLife - the journal ! 🤓😎 A super awesome collaboration with Cenk Celik, @Guillou76, and more. 🤠 doi.org/10.7554/eLife.…

We are happy to announce that the 10th ASM Conference on Biofilms will be held in Portland, Oregon, from Nov 9-13, 2025. We look forward to gathering the biofilm community for what should be a fantastic meeting. See the ASM website for details. asm.org/Events/ASM-Bio…

Want to gain mechanistic insights on major outstanding ecological and evolutionary questions? Register now for the 2024 edition of the #EMBOEvoEco Workshop. It will take place 8-11 October 2024 in Heidelberg EMBL Events. Only few weeks left for abstract submission (10 July).

I am a little biased, but this is SUCH a great meeting! For microbial folks thinking about ecological and evolutionary problems, this a great crowd! Check it out! 👇

#SGBUG is back for July 2024, first with Haris Antypas from lab of Kimberly Kline 🏔 sharing about his work on enterococcal infective endocarditis!

Our previously preprinted work on E. faecalis HtrA is now out PLOS Genetics. A project close to my ❤️, started in 🇸🇬 by Adeline Yong and finished in🇨🇭 by Cristina Colomer and supported by an international cast! journals.plos.org/plosgenetics/a…

The 2024 GRC on Streptococcal Biology #GRCStrepBio24 was a terrific conference! Gordon Research Conferences; a big thanks to chairs Jan-Willem Veening and Michael Federle for organizing and Kimberly Kline 🏔 and Jose Lemos 🇧🇷🇺🇸 for taking over the next one!

Calling all Enterococcal researchers & enthusiasts! 🦠We've really appreciated the Enterococcal tools available @Biocyc, especially with upgraded curation, so I'm happy to spread the good word to those who are still out there.

Congratulations to Zhi Ren from Penn Dental Medicine for winning the FEMS Microbes best ECR talk award at the 7th International Aegean Conference on Model Hosts! 🥳 He gave a killer talk on Selenomonas sputigena. A very cool🦠.

Getting the spiderwebs out to excitedly share our new work Kimberly Kline 🏔 lab. We studied how Enterococci use lactic acid to suppress the inflammatory response and promote virulence. biorxiv.org/content/10.110… It is now under review, stay tuned for a revised version when published.=)

Wonderful teamwork from the labs of Kimberly Kline 🏔 Daria Van Tyne Annelies Zinkernagel!
