Our most complex biologic system—immunity—is reviewed in 3 new Cell papers, open-access Adaptive cell.com/cell/fulltext/… Innate cell.com/cell/fulltext/… New insights cell.com/cell/fulltext/… Ruslan Medzhitov

In today's The Lancet a series of papers on antimicrobial resistance, a huge global health issue that we're not addressing thelancet.com/infographics-d…

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!

We are running a massive online open course on AMR databases starting end of the month. Its completely free, study at your own pace and its ~15 hours overall over the 3 weeks (although you can finish any time in a year). Please spread in your networks! …erences.wellcomeconnectingscience.org/event/antimicr…

It's here! I'm recruiting a #postdoc to work with me on an ANR funded project Institut Pasteur, since 1887! Check it out! We're in melanie hamon & Cell Biology & Infection

Enterococcus faecalis, recognized as an extracellular pathogen, also has an intracellular lifestyle. This #MMBR review summarizes how the bacterium adheres to, enters & survives within host cells, & highlights the need for further mechanistic studies. asm.social/24H

Sept 2024 #SGBUG! Ronni da Silva from Kimberly Kline 🏔 lab sharing about his work on how Enterococcus faecalis interacts with host immune cells! SCELSE

🚨 Job Opportunity 🚨 We’re hiring a Research Assistant to support studies on bacterial physiology & biofilm-related infections at SCELSE 🧫🧬 Requirements: 🎓 BA/BS in biology/biomedicine/microbiology 🧪 Experience with rodents & microbiology Apply: ntu.wd3.myworkdayjobs.com/en-US/Careers/…

#SGBUG Online Seminars are back with Prof Eun-Jin Lee (Eunjin Lee) sharing with us hervwork om bacterial toxins! Happeening on 3rd Oct (Thu), 4 pm SG time (GMT+8)! Sign up now tinyurl.com/BUG2024-Sept! acrobat.adobe.com/id/urn:aaid:sc…

📢The Zlitni Lab at UCSF is recruiting postdocs (experimental and computational) to join our team. We study microbial communication & quorum sensing in the human microbiome, and how these processes influence health and disease. To apply shorturl.at/erriN Please share widely

Published just in time for the holidays! I learned so much while writing about the past, present, and future of E. faecalis research with Gary. Check it out! 🦠🧫🧪🔬 journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/mm…

We have a fully funded PhD scholarship for Aug 2025 intake. If you are interested in joining our research group, please check the admission requirement on the website and contact us. ntu.edu.sg/education/grad…

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.=)

Also, I am more active (ish) on bluesky these days. Let's find each other there: @ronni.bsky.social

Thrilled to share our work on E. faecalis in infective endocarditis! We reveal how loss of Fsr QS drives biofilm growth, antibiotic tolerance, and immune evasion in vivo—linking Fsr-deficient strains to prolonged bacteremia in endocarditis patients.
