Excited to share that some of my PhD research was recently published in Nature Communications! In short, we showed that when a spatially-structured bacterial population is exposed to antibiotics, death sweeps through it as a sharp front whose dynamics are controlled by a “nutrient bottleneck”

See all the details of my latest manuscript here -- excited to hear your thoughts! #biophysics #microbiology

Excited to share my latest thesis work: doi.org/10.1101/2025... Here, we show that when a bacterial population is exposed to antibiotic, death sweeps through it as a sharp front—with dynamics controlled by a "nutrient bottleneck". 🦠☠️ 🧵 to follow... [1/8]

A friend included this anti-acknowledgement section on her PhD thesis. She also added the proposition: “Systematic bullying and undermining of girls and women in STEM starts early on and is the reason why they do not stay in science and related fields.” Absurd we still need to go through this 🧪👩‍🔬
