Methanogenesis outside the Euryarchaeota experimentally demonstrated by three cultivation-driven studies (two from my lab)! A long🧵.🐻with me tinyurl.com/4v4fkda6tinyurl.com/yr4p7js6tinyurl.com/mtsrj6b9
Was super fun to host you and hear about all the great things you and yours are doing!!🦠🧫💻🧬💩💩😎
Happy to have been awarded Advanced ERC grant today to continue out work with Silent Flagellin
Is it time for NIH to switch from cataloging microbial genes/gene products to support functional analyses? Germany’s DFG just announced a new funding initiative to study gene functions in the human gut microbiota. 🧪🦠🧫🔬👩🔬🥼 www.dfg.de/de/service/p...
Insects integrate their endosymbionts during embryo/oogenesis, or acquire them extracellularly after hatching. But in tortoise beetles, these lines are blurred. Super happy to share our latest, co-led by Miguel Porras & Inès Pons, out today in ISME Communications! academic.oup.com/ismecommun/a...

Great paper on engineering Cutibacterium acnes. Obstacles to genetic engineering: ✂️ Restriction-modification 🔌 Electroporation conditions 🦠 Cell wall We are also working on all of the above problems at Cultivarium. www.nature.com/articles/s41...
An engineered skin microbe produces a therapeutic molecule that reduces sebum in mice.
This is really interesting- I had no idea special issues were taking on a life of their own
It’s all you, Hassan!
