New paper out in ISME Journal. Social interactions between strains shape bacterial communities. However, their impact on community functioning is lower compared to basic strain identity features. @joskramer.bsky.social @alexfig.bsky.social @simonmarech.bsky.social academic.oup.com/ismej/advanc...

Two (!) perspective pieces published today involving people from our lab! @adelpanta.bsky.social on spatial patterning in microbial communities www.nature.com/articles/s41... and @salazarafra.bsky.social on microbial communities as evolutionary individuals www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Nice to see how this project developed through the years & published in @currentbiology.bsky.social by Saheli Saha et al from @iamsamayp.bsky.social group 👏 Mass lysis of predatory bacteria drives the enrichment of antibiotic resistance in soil microbial communities www.cell.com/current-biol...

Delighted to share my first PhD paper and also the first paper from the lab !!! 🎉🔬🧬🧫 We show that predatory bacteria, M. xanthus can play an important role in the maintenance of AMR even in the absence of anthropogenic influx of antibiotics in the environment. Read this awesome thread to know more

New paper alert!! Survival of the resistant: When Myxococcus xanthus dies, antibiotic-resistant microbes rise, even without drug exposure. Our manuscript is now online at @currentbiology.bsky.social www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

What determines the spatial structure of microbial communities? In our new review we discuss the factors and feedbacks that affect spatial patterning and methods to study them. Great collaboration w. @saramitri.bsky.social @adelpanta.bsky.social & @micsysecolab.bsky.social doi.org/10.1038/s415... 🦠

🚨Proud to announce that Saheli Saha from our lab is now officially levelled up to Dr. Saheli! 🎓🔬 Years of battling microbes, pipetting & wrestling with data have paid off.🦠⚔️📊 The bacteria never stood a chance—nor did the thesis committee.😏 Even better-she’s our lab’s first PhD!🎊
