If you are interested in microbes and their effects on ecosystems and human health, consider attending this conference Evolving Microbes and Global Health @IGCiencia Lisbon next October! Fantastic line up of speakers👇and exciting interdisciplinary program igc.idloom.events/evolving-micro…

Using AI on >1K yeast genomic, metabolic & ecological data, Marie-Claire Harrison predicted yeast diets from their genomes or from the rest of their diets! With help from Emily Ubbelohde (HittingerLab), they discovered an alternative galactose pathway pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…

Comparative #genomics of Cryptococcus and the sister genus Kwoniella reveal #gene gain and loss associated w/ the #evolution of pathogenesis🧬. Significant variation in #chromosome # and structure, including #centromere loss, were also observed.

Harmit S. Malik @ajai_dandekar Deborah Hogan Hello world! Our lovely baby is out, please check the link to the published version here. 🥳🥳journals.plos.org/plosbiology/ar…

Super grateful and honored to receive the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation Postdoc-to-Faculty Transition Award! !🥳🥳 Immense gratitude to my mentors (Harmit S. Malik @ajai_dandekar Andrew Murray Jun-Yi Leu) and all the amazing colleagues who supported me on this journey. fredhutch.org/en/news/center…

Thanks to the organizers for inviting and for curating such an exciting program. I’m very much looking forward to the symposium!

Can non-antagonistic #microbes survive alongside toxin producers? With MingYi Wang & Alex Vladimirsky we explore how disturbances favor non-antagonistic microbes and identify optimal regulatory strategies that define the competitive edge of toxin producers t.ly/GkXAY

Today, I reflect on the legacy of @IGCiencia over the last 60 years and what it has meant for research and the scientific community in Portugal and beyond. IGC was never just a place—it was a pioneering model. #IGCLegacyLivesOn 1/5

It looks like I never posted anything (*but see below) on what are probably the most surprising results my lab obtained so far. Anyway, this work—led by an outstanding former PhD student Sarah Ardell in collaboration with Milo Johnson—is now published: science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Just got back from one of my favorite conference series, #EMBOEvoEco. It was the first time attending with the lab crew: Mariana Natalino, Ines Geraldes, and Patricia Martins. Totally impressed by the amazing science we saw! Congrats to the organizers!

New Preprint Alert! We uncovered how Mg²⁺ depletion by fungi drives P. aeruginosa to evolve novel colistin resistance mechanisms! Check out the details here 👉 [biorxiv.org/content/10.110…]

Bringing together life scientists from Europe and beyond - the meeting of the EMBO communities at its peak #EMBOat60

Fresh preprint from brilliant PhD student Mariana Natalino! We asked how nutrients shape compensatory evolution to DNA replication stress. We find changes in cell physiology and adaptation rates, yet core genetic adaptation remains robust! Check out her post below for details!👇

Excited to share the first paper coming out of my postdoc Institut Cochin ! Ever wondered which #genomic regions are more prone to #replication errors in #Ecoli and why? A small 🧵 below (1/) Link to full paper: doi.org/10.1093/nar/gk… Nucleic Acids Res
