We have a new preprint with Andy Farr and @RaineyLab. If you are interested in barcoding a microbial species, have a look at our adventure to barcode P.fluorescens SBW25. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Awesome paper! academic.oup.com/mbe/article/38…

Frederic Bertels Frederic Bertels and collaborators from @MPI_EvolBio have a recommended #preprint in Peer Community In: RAREFAN: A webservice to identify REPINs and RAYTs in bacterial genomes doi.org/10.1101/2022.0…

See our final lineup for Phage Bites symposium! Six talks from PhDs/ECRS followed by an expert discussion on synthetic biology to create therapeutic phage! Still time to register Our ECR speakers on Twitter - George Bouras @BhavyaPapudeshi @lavisha_parab Cathy Davenport

Putin's intentions are clear for the world to see. No one should be fooled by Russia's litany of lies

Lovely to see our study out in mBio! journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/mb… The short read : don't assume higher antibiotic resistance causes higher fitness in bacteria selected with sub-inhibitory antibiotics. With wonderful colleagues Diego Pesce Suman Das Mark Zwart and Arjan de Visser!

Looking forward to reading lots of intersting papers with Journal of Evolutionary Biology !!

Peer-reviewed version in Nature Communications of our (Yashraj Chavhan Sutirth Dey) paper on experimental evolution of bacterial multicellularity by genetic assimilation of phenotypically plastic cell clustering nature.com/articles/s4146… Don't miss the new supplementary movies!

Open group leader position in #prokaryote #phylogenetics! Join our vibrant community of evolutionary biologists in @_K_E_C. Inquiries during #SMBE2023 are welcome (to T. Dagan). MetaorganismResearch TransEvo Universität Kiel CAU 🎓 details here: tinyurl.com/4266uyve

We have a 2-year postdoc fellowship available in the Lind Lab at Umeå University, Sweden! Predicting and guiding experimental evolution of antibiotic resistance in Pseudomonas aeruginosa. RTs appreciated. euraxess.ec.europa.eu/jobs/125061

Our manuscript is finally out in Molecular Biology and Evolution: academic.oup.com/mbe/article/40…

Building a solid research profile takes time. We want to support exactly that in #theoreticalbiology and offer *two* long-term postdoc positions. Details and application procedure is here tecoevo.github.io/positions/

This is a very cool piece of work from Jenna Gallie et al Large-scale duplication events underpin population-level flexibility in tRNA gene copy number in Pseudomonas fluorescens academic.oup.com/nar/advance-ar…

🦠🧬New paper🧬🦠 A family of ICEs infiltrated the P. syringae species complex! PsICEs are highly recombinogenic but conserve backbone genes punctuated by diverse cargo genes. The most common one? A transposon able to manipulate bacterial metabolism. 👇 pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…
