Excited to share Wendy Le Mouëllic’s PhD work, now published in @pnas.org! It reveals that M. tuberculosis depends on inorganic sulfate import to survive inside host cells—fueling essential processes such as redox balance and stress resistance. Huge congrats to Wendy & colleagues! shorturl.at/WbFQC

🦠 Mycobacteria aren't just tough, they're interior designers! 🦠 Check out our latest #preprint 🚨, led by our PhD student @camimille.bsky.social , where we show that #Mycobacterium tuberculosis builds secret cytoplasmic membranes to adapt its metabolism and sneak past immunity 🤫 Thread coming soon!

Be our new colleague! 🎉 The Dept of Molecular and Cellular Biology at the University of Geneva is hiring an Assistant Professor or Associate Professor. 👉 More details here: lnkd.in/e8Z9eAm4 👉 Our department: mocel.unige.ch Please feel free to share this opportunity with your network.

Watch @maxgg.bsky.social, Group Leader at the Crick, as he explains what happens to cells that are infected with tuberculosis and how his lab is studying our bodies’ response to this infection. www.youtube.com/watch?v=VWCt...

Long live Dicty! ✨ So grateful for the chance to attend this wonderful meeting one last time. Always a joy to reconnect with old colleagues and friends

How does evolution shape ancient cellular processes? Our new paper uncovers the mosaic evolution of conserved and diverging endocytic traits in fungi! www.cell.com/current-biol...

Last week was a fantastic opportunity for @lucasceseti.bsky.social to share his work on Xanthomonas and Dicty at #ETOX25 🦠 The Basque Country was the place to hear great science on toxins🤩

Come and Join our Dpt in Beautiful #Geneva ! We are looking for a #Microscopy & #Image #Analysis expert to help all of us at the Dpt.

Check our latest methods chapter on how to use Dictyostelium–Mycobacterium marinum as a high-throughput screening platform for anti-infective compounds 👇 www.frontiersin.org/journals/mic... @nabilhanna3.bsky.social

Last week’s ESCRT meeting was full of great science and engaging discussions! 🤩 Such a great place to share our work on ESCRT during Mycobacterium marinum infection 🦠

💥 Very excited to share this review in Nature Reviews Microbiology. Contributing to this review with Val, Digby and Amy was an enlightening experience! Hope people in the community find it useful- we managed to cite around 200 papers... www.nature.com/articles/s41... www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Jinich et al. present an important new resource for the Mtb community! The Mycobacterium tuberculosis Transposon Sequencing Database (MtbTnDB) is an interactive web resource summarizing 150+ published screens. #MicroSky #Mycobacterium #tuberculosis onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

🚨 Great story released by @gm-charriere.bsky.social and co.! They identified and characterised a natural interaction between amoebae and Vibrio, pointing to Paramoeba as a potential reservoir of oyster pathogens 🦪 Congrats! 🥂 enviromicro-journals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

🥳🙌

What better way to wrap up the Soldati tour than with a fantastic talk from @mel-foulon.bsky.social? 🎤 She enjoyed “shedding” her enthusiasm for Myco lipids with such a brilliant crowd of passionate scientists at #EMBOcellBioHostPath! 🧫✨

Yesterday, @nabilhanna3.bsky.social had the fantastic opportunity to present one of his projects during another vibrant and successful poster session at #EMBOcellBioHostPath! 👏 Stay tuned for @mel-foulon.bsky.social ‘s talk

🤩 Great start to the #EMBOcellBioHostPath! Justine had the honor of kicking off the Soldati lab presentations with her fantastic poster! Not too late to catch up if you missed it! 📍Stay tuned for @nabilhanna3.bsky.social poster tomorrow and @mel-foulon.bsky.social talk on Thursday!

Did you know the cell wall of mycobacteria isn’t just for protection? 🧱👀 Here, Mycobacterium marinum sheds its outer capsule right after being eaten by Dicty! A sneaky move that affects even nearby cells… #FluorescenceFriday #Mycobacteria #CellBiology #Infection #3Rmodels #Phagocytosis

It was good to see @carobarisch.bsky.social back in town! Thanks for the career view and advices ✨

A short reminder that registrations for the EMBO ESCRT meeting 2025 in Montreux June 23rd-June27th are still opened! Please register online at meetings.embo.org/event/25-escrt

Congratulations to Dr. @guallar-garrido.bsky.social on her new lecturer position at the Autonomous University of Barcelona! She will keep working on mycobacteria using amoeba host model. Best of luck on this exciting new chapter! 👏🔬✨
