If anyone is connected in the science editorial space and is looking for an associate editor focusing on microbiology or cell bio I’d love to chat! Currently on the market.

They cancelled the F32 how to webinar… I knew it was coming but it still hurts.

Screaming internally in light of this evenings news

The new F32 formatting for the personal section is really nice. Moving on from graduate school has me in my feels but its really nice to be able to outline personal non-research goals for my postdoc with things I’ve always wanted to do like teach a class.

Flow-induced bending of flagella controls bacterial surface behavior https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2025.01.07.631359v1

Hi #microsky! Would anyone be willing to share their funded NIH F32 application with me, preferably in the realm of microbiology but anything would be helpful!

How do bacteria experience nutrient stress in nature? In our new preprint, we study how cells respond to nutrient limitation under flow. We find that in flow, cells can grow on concentrations of glucose 1,000 times lower than in batch cell culture. (1/5) #microsky www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

I enjoyed Project Hail Mary quite a bit after suspending disbelief - though I think it would have been nice if a microbiologist had been consulted on the book. Little details could have been fleshed out to make the experiments more realistic.

So excited to see this in press! Congratulations to @anu-sharma.bsky.social for her fantastic work and first published first author paper. Check it out!!!

New science coming soon! #microbiology #biophysics
