jobs.gla.ac.uk/job/research-… Excited to advertise this post-doc position in the Davidson Death Lab. Here, we'll live-image tumour cell death in diverse Drosophila tumour models to learn how different types of cancer learn to live with cell death.

We are all living in a bubble that deprives us of experiences needed to understand the true magnitude of the threat posed by the rise of multi-drug resistant infections. It would be wise to allocate resources that match the severity of the threat. science.org/doi/10.1126/scie…

😂😂😂 there might be something out there on butyrate and efferocytosis that was in contention.

This work started during my time with @kodiravi, who is an amazing mentor. The work evolved and blossomed into a wonderful international collaboration with @MDesai_Lab and @LarsVereecke who are fantastic collaborators. Huge thanks to the entire Anderson Lab and all co-authors!

Really surprisingly, we found that death-dependent purine containing metabolites (AMP, GMP, IMP), can act as accessory signals to re-wire E coli transcription to promote aerobic respiration and suppress anaerobic respiration, even when grown under aerobic conditions (17% O2)!

Intestinal epithelial cell apoptosis is necessary, though not sufficient, for chemotherapy-induced tissue damage and disease (mucositis). Further, the death-dependent bloom of E coli seems to be the missing link that connects cell death to disease.
