We are "microthanatologists" and we are getting better at killing our microbes of interest! Micro: small Thanatology: the study of death 🧪🦠🧫 #IDsky

Thank you #bluesky for all your likes and shares of our #GoFundMe to support our continued research into new antibacterial medicines to treat Helicobacter infections and prevent stomach cancer and ulcers! #Medsky #gastroenterology #stomachcancer #cancer #helicobacter #antibiotics #ulcers

🧬Most stomach cancer starts with an infection. We’ve discovered new antibiotics that target the bacteria behind it — Helicobacter pylori — and they work where others fail. Help us prevent stomach cancer before it starts. 💡 Donate: gofund.me/1701bac3 🧪🦠🧫 #Gastrosky #IDsky #Cansky #OncoSky #IBDsky

This is such a cool tool and exactly how we should have framed NIH research all along: Taxpayers fund scientists to understand disease and discover new treatments—and we deliver. It’s public investment that saves lives and improves health for everyone. Direct ROI. 🧪🧫 #IDsky #GastroySky

So excited to visit Indiana University next week! Looking forward to learning about the incredible science happening there & and sharing some of what our lab's been up to. 🧬🔬 I am bringing lots of visual aids for the talk 😁

Citrobacter swims, drawn to rich, liquid feces— a feast fuels its harm. 🦠🧪🧫 #chemotaxis

Bringing you your weekly update of chemotactic creepy crawlies. Here is a strain of E. coli isolated from a urinary tract infection being attracted to human 💩. Yummy! Each white dot is a bacterium. Interestingly the cells shaped like long pool noodles seem less interested. 🦠🧫🧪 #IDsky #gastrosky

When E. coli gets a whiff of fresh 💩 it’s game on. They use chemotaxis to swim towards the source and enjoy the buffet of tasty L-serine, L-aspartate, glucose & other nutrients. Bacteria do this inside your intestines everyday! 🧪🧫🦠 #IDsky #gastrosky #chemotaxis

🧪🧫 Which of these new putative drugs is more likely to make it to clinical trial? Your choices are a golden yellow powder or a lovely amber orange powder. Taking bets now - will reveal the answer in 5-10 years.
