Gut bacteria are stronger when in community 🤝
EMBL Heidelberg researchers found that sensitive bacteria can be protected from drugs when part of communities. These emergent behaviours will help to design more efficient therapies, with less side effects.

This week, I defended my PhD with @TypasLab at @embl & @UniHeidelberg on “Genomic landscape of resistance evolution”. Incredibly grateful for fantastic 4.5 years at @EMBLHeidelberg and all the great memories and friends, but also very excited for the next step (TBA soon)! #PhDone

Very interesting work:
🦴Researchers used our @MGnifyDB microbiome data resource to discover enzymes that can upcycle animal bones into protein powder for human & animal consumption.
Such solutions are essential for feeding a growing population 🌍

Few initiatives have had the impact of @TeamFoldscope to make science more accessible & trigger that "Oh Wow!" moment in non scientists. This will be an amazing tool to engage more people in the beauty of the microbial world. Full support @PrakashLab
