Factors other than AMR contributed to pathogen success over the antibiotic era. We used temporal GWAS to identify these, including a widely distributed novel adhesin. Check out Rebecca Bennett’s epic work here to find out more bit.ly/3KtltgK 1/10

One mission of Penn State E. coli Reference Center is the rescue of E. coli collections in danger of being lost as faculty retire or otherwise move on. Headed to the Midwest shortly for two such collections, one lab also has a large group B Strep collection looking for a home. Ideas or interest?

What over 10,000 E. coli in a rental car looks like. Thanks to the Foxman lab Michigan Public Health for helping our collection grow to over 95,000 isolates Penn State College of Agricultural Sciences

View from the meeting room at the microbial sciences building at University of Wisconsin Madison we are hiring Assistant Professors in parasite-host and bacteria-host interactions in the MMI ⁦UW-Madison MMI⁩ department. Come join a very collaborative dept

For the second part of our opening session, we’re excited to welcome White House Senior Policy Advisor on Global COVID-19 Response Dr. Nahid Bhadelia Archived! asm.social/QR #ASMNGS #nextgenerationsequencing #NGS #COVID19

Stop by Laura Carroll's poster at the #ASMNGS today 5-7 PM. She'd be happy to chat about #Bacillus cereus group strains isolated in conjunction with 2020 welder #anthrax cases in the US! #NGS #microbiology

Yezhi Fu and Edward Dudley highlighting how important #OneHeath is in pathogen surveillance. Birds are reservoirs for salmonella! #asmngs

A smaller paper but one I'm damn proud of getting out. Collaboration with UPR Aguadilla - Oficial, part of NIFA #REEU program. Another paper to follow on #AMR on dairy farms on PR. Undergrads who knew little about genomics prior to starting led the way. journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/mr…

Did you think I was done spamming you about jobs in my department? I am NOT! See below and apply by Monday for full consideration. ✨

We used machine learning to segment stomatal guard cells from 3D confocal data and learned new things about stomatal biomechanics! Great collab with Dolzodmaa Davaasuren, Yintong Chen, Leila Jaafar, Rayna Marshall, Angelica Dunham, and James Z. Wang! cell.com/patterns/fullt…

#WeArePSUmBiome is a new series that celebrates the exceptional people of the Center and the collaborative spirit we bring to “making life better” at the Center each day. This week we feature Taejung Chung – PhD candidate and Director of DAWG Kovac Lab #ECR #FoodSafety

We PlantVillage bet on young people to develop & test the innovations needed to feed a world of 10 billion under climate change. And capture/store 1 billion tonnes carbon on smallholder farms. We are now in 9 countries reaching 14 million farmers/week. What does that look like?

“A range of entities including…academic organizations operate objects at these altitudes” Great, we just shot down some 4th year Ph.D students thesis project. Objects shot down in Alaska, Canada less advanced than Chinese balloon - The Washington Post apple.news/AhwAFsLbdQZaWT…

Foodborne pathogen risks, zoonotic diseases, climate change and molecular biology training are the focus of a new international partnership involving two One Health Microbiome Center investigators Edward Dudley & Dr. Erika Ganda and Meru University of Science and Technology (MUST). Big science for big problems and solutions ⤵️
