If you're at #ASMicrobe, come see us today! I'm up at 8:15 in 403B, and our grad students: @oceancait.bsky.social at 9:15 in 403B and @astrobio-agb.bsky.social also at 9:15 in 402AB. I'll be scrambling between the two rooms to see them!

Hey #ASMicrobe 🦠 head over to the branch point biosciences booth to grab some swag likely inspired by @jcamthrash.bsky.social ‘s life. If you need QPCR assays, use them!

My talk at #ASMicrobe ! Looking forward to this!

For those at the #ASMicrobe @asm.org conference this weekend, my PhD student Alejandro De Santiago (a bioinformatics ninja) is presenting his poster on a new nematode-bacterial symbiosis we’ve recently discovered! TODAY in the poster hall www.abstractsonline.com/pp8/#!/20974...
