ASM Microbe is accepting late-breaking abstracts until April 15 if you have new results related to: Climate Change (Microbes & Wildfires), Emerging Viral Infections, Re-Emerging Infectious Diseases (e.g. Measles, Tuberculosis), or Recent Clinical Trials. asm.org/Events/ASM-M...

All interested in attending this summer's ASM Microbe mtg; early registration closes March 19! Make sure to register for housing soon--there'll be a FIFA event in LA at the same time, so housing may be hard to come by late asm.org/events/asm-m...

Come check out my session on metal homeostasis in environmental microorganisms as part of the Microbial Chemistry Curates Itinerary at #ASMicrobe!

It's not a good sign when major foundations and organizations that support critical disease research in the US have to issue a press release in protest of government actions that put patient health at risk. Read the press release here: www.cff.org/press-releas...

Turn out today in Birmingham @ Railroad Park to Stand Up For Science!

Kara Satalino, CF mom & advocate, will attend tonight's joint address to congress as a guest of Rep. John Larson (D-CT). Satalino is quoted in Rep. Larson's press release about the importance of continuing to support funding for research on diseases like CF. larson.house.gov/media-center...

Join the Alabama Stand Up For Science rally on Friday March 7 at Railroad Park!

Now the NIH postbac research program is paused??? What a huge loss for the scientific community. This has been a great program that has provided critical training for so many young scientists.

I'm leading a panel today at the Cilia, Mucus & Mucociliary Interactions GRS on "Life After a Terminal Degree: Careers in Academia, Industry, and Beyond." What a time for this discussion. What advice would you give trainees about why it's worth it to continue to pursue a career in science?

Now seems a good time to mention that I haven't yet filled a postdoc position in phylogenetic methods. If you just lost your job, need something temporary, and know something about bioinformatics/statistics/evolution, talk to me.

Happy to see ASM responded after a town hall meeting with 300+ members who expressed a desire for our organization to stand firm in supporting DEI

@asm.org leadership pledged support to continue to host ABRCMS in a virtual town hall event with members today, even if federal funding falls short.

The @asm.org Future Leaders program has been instrumental at preparing future scientists who represent our community's diverse membership. It's critical that this program and others can continue. Members should speak out in support of keeping these important initiatives. asm.org/fellowships/...

Congrats @vscooper.micropopbio.org our new ASM president-elect!!

It's that time again-ASM is accepting applications for the next Microbe meeting in June 2025 in sunny L.A. We have some excellent Host Microbe Biology sessions lined up, check them out via at the link below. Abstract deadline is January 22 www.abstractsonline.com/pp8/#!/20974...

Literally happy eggs from my grad student’s @csebastianbio.bsky.social family farm

As a former Wisconsin grad myself (Class of ‘07, BS in Medical Microbiology & Immunology), I just had a very surreal experience of writing a letter of rec for one of my students to join the Microbiology PhD program there. Wow. On Wisconsin! (Not that I’m biased in anything 😉)

Great opportunity for travel awards for early career scientists to attend ASM microbe in LA this summer!
