Join us Fri., Mar. 14th at Microphiles from 12:40-1:40 in SH 001 for a talk by QCB Ambassador Averi McFarland from the Winkler Lab! Lets show our support and learn more about her research: “Linking Peptidoglycan Elongation to Metabolism in Streptococcus pneumoniae.” 🦠🧫👩‍🔬🔬 #WomeninMicro #IUResearch

QCB member Lauren Augusta (@fuquaclay.bsky.social) is a co-author on a new preprint investigating chromosome fusion in Agrobacterium! This work at @iubiology.bsky.social reveals key constraints on genome evolution. Read it here: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... #Bioinformatics #PlantPathology #HiC

Join us tomorrow (Tues, Feb. 25th) at the A800 Research Talks from 4-5PM in Chem CH033 for a talk by QCB Trainee Jane Joncha from the Jacobson Lab! Show your support and learn about her research: “Transposon Mutagenesis to Generate Constitutive Fluorescent Labels for Microscopy of B. subtilis.”

QCB trainee Liam Scott co-authored an ACS Nano study creating ultra-bright viral nanoparticles with unprecedented fluorescence uniformity. This work from the Dragnea lab demonstrates innovative viral protein engineering for cutting-edge optical technologies. #Chromophores #Fluorescence #Layers #Nano

Andrew Bach, QCB ambassador, co-authored a paper on quaternary-substituted stereogenic centers via Lewis base-Pd catalysis. This new approach competes with direct deprotonation, advancing asymmetric synthesis techniques. Congrats, Andrew! onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.... #OrganicSynthesis

🔬 QCB trainees Dr. Abigail Garrett and @mkosterb.bsky.social uncover how bacteria fight zinc toxicity! 🦠 New @plos.bsky.social paper reveals 5 small RNAs help Streptococcus pneumoniae survive #MicrobiologyResearch

🎉 Hunter Richman, one of our QCB trainees, is a co-author on the newly published paper "Targeting the Weak Spot: Preferential Disruption of Bacterial Poles by Janus Nanoparticles."
