My first attempt at #beefonweck IYKYK. #GOBILLS

Wow- pretty impressed with the new @asm.org publication submission site. Very easy process! Now hoping the next steps goes as smoothly.

Congrats to James Romero Masters on publishing his lab's first paper!! An Editor's Pick no less!!! @asm.org #journalofvirology #asm journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/...

This is beautiful work. Congrats to @mbonhivers.bsky.social and Derrick as well as yoour colleagues

I know football coaches salaries are largely from athletic foundation funds. But it's ridiculous for a public institution being on the line for millions if they fire a coach who was sucking ass. The greed in college sports has destroyed it and has made it unwatchable

Who had a better day than me? @virginiatech.bsky.social #hokies #hokiebird

Tell Aaron Boone that she is ready to pinch hit #newyorkyankees

Evolution of polyamine resistance in Staphylococcus aureus through modulation of potassium transport #mSphere from @biobarber.bsky.social journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/...

Happy to share this new article online at #mSphere journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/... Human nasal organoids (HNOs) are a new model system for studying bacterial colonization and interspecies interactions. A big congratulations to the whole team, especially co-first authors: Andrea Boyd and Leah Kafer

Look who just learned how to use an AI Image generator

I bet that no one can write a significance and innovstion section for a NIH grant than this.

[We are Hiring!] The Weiss Lab at Albert Einstein College of Medicine (NY) is hiring a Postdoc Scientist to explore the Toxoplasma gondii cyst wall using XL-MS, Split TurboID, & U-ExM. This project aims to unlock new strategies for treating toxoplasmosis. DM for more info!

@livgolfleague.bsky.social @pganews.bsky.social are you going to allow hate speech by one if your players against a sitting member if congress?

Whats wrong college football? Head coaches are out of control

Ed who?? #billsmafia

What’s really sick and demented about this is that he knew by then who the shooter was and his background. But lying and playing the victim are his only sources of oxygen

Congrats to #mSphere Senior Editor Michael Johson @copperbae.bsky.social for this award from @asm.org that recognizes the important work that Michael is doing to ensure and promote equity and access for all scientists. Congrats Michael - you're awe inspriring. asm.org/press-releas...

I am sure that the supreme court will weigh in on this and with a 6-3 decision proclaim that trump has the right to be a child predator because …. Thats what their bosses in Moscow want them to decide

How does this comeback rank? #2 behind Frank Reich playoffs over Oilers? #billsmafia

This was one of the craziest gsmes ever. Bills are destiny

#billsmafia:

Maybe the Bills should have Trubitsky start next week #billsmafia

Home opener tomorrow night. #gohokies @virginiatech.bsky.social

www.politico.com/news/2025/09... saying that he is wrong is disingenuous bc that implies he’s a good faith actor. But he is a charlatan who is wantonly destroying the american health and biomedical enterprises. @politico.com’s whitewashing of this is why we are where we are.

Thanks to ASM and the other organizations for posting this.

🧪 Senate appropriators say: NIH's budget gets a... boost! Rather than 40% cut, NIH gets a $400M *increase* in the Senate committee bill for FY26 (about +1%). "Congress has your back," said @murray.senate.gov. ADVOCACY MATTERS! There's still a long road (esp in the House), so keep up pressure.

Ladies and gentlemen I oresent to you the three dumb stooges

The departure of top leaders from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention poses a serious threat to public health. This exodus comes at a critical moment, as the nation heads into flu season and faces ongoing infectious disease threats: asm.org/Press-Releas...

This is the same asshat preaching g to us about “gold standard science”. This nightmare can’t end quickly enough

It’s sad bc she was probably the sane voice of reason in that cesspool of an administration

Vance’s fake intellectual voice is useful to his rubes bc it sounds like he knows what he’s talking about when he’s full of shit. WWII was not settled by resolution. It was settled by crushing Germany and Japan. Failing to acknowledge this is like spitting on graves of all those fought to do so

It’s hard to fathom the logic here but totally expected. And to add salt to the wound the government also today basically just cancelled grants to the same Hispanic serving institutions that the money from this program was going to be redirected too. They lie so much they can’t keep track of

Excited to share the latest work by outstanding PhD student @kdc509.bsky.social. This was one of our first forays into experimental evolution and uncovered some cool connections between potassium transport and antimicrobial resistance in S. aureus. Major kudos to Killian!

Now available in a polished format! An important step toward accelerated functional genomics for the Cryptosporidium parasite. Brought to you by the incomparable @lucy-watson.bsky.social www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Today marks my one year anniversary of moving to @virginiatech.bsky.social. Some notes: 1. A lot has changed in the last year. 2. Serving as a department head is a great privilege. 3. Having dedicated and motivated faculty makes my job easy.

www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/... Another Trumper saved by NIH funded research. If they loved their kids as much as they love themselves.

I understand that it is important to be dedicated and go all in on one’s science. But this attitude that one’s science and the papers we publish should define our happiness and life’s purpose is unhealthy and unrealistic

The finality of my move from Western New York has just hit me

Based on this reasoning why isn’t ICE going after Trump?

It’s always ALWAYS the self righteous holier than thou assholes who push their morals on us that have no actual morals nondoc.com/2025/07/25/b...

So RFK Jr is accepting or rejecting MMWR papers. Does this mean that if there is a conference for editor-in-chiefs of microbiology journals that RFK Jr would attend? Asking for a friend

Any recommendations for a mouse anti-HA antibody that works well for immunofluorensce? Thanks in advance

Some papers are called a tour-de-forces. This one can be added to that list of papers. Amazing work. congrats to @ghostpathogen.bsky.social @saterialelab.bsky.social

A majority of Americans also believe that it is morally wrong to have high-powered guns to shoot other people. Yet, we haven't changed any laws about that!
