Thrilled to be awarded a U19 (CARBIRU) to study antibiotic heteroresistance by @NIAIDNews with an amazing team of colleagues from @EmoryARC and @UAC_UU! We are hiring motivated postdocs and techs (DM for now, postings coming). Please RT and join us in studying heteroresistance!

Beyond the $85 billion dedicated to transit, the #AmericanJobPlan is a rare opportunity to plan transport and land-use together. To maximize its impact, the plan should build affordable housing near transit and dedicate road-space to buses and trains. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

Excited to share a preprint with some of my thesis work done in the @LandickLab! We used cool techniques to unravel connections between H-NS filament structure and DNA sequence. Thanks to my co-authors for making this project fun! @cmhustmyer @mikebwolfe @JessenErik

Replying to @DWeissLab
@DWeissLab and I compared the roles of the native #Cas9 and #Cas12a CRISPR-Cas systems in Francisella novicida -- they both restrict DNA but only Cas9 alters virulence jb.asm.org/content/202/12/e0…

For some non-Coronavirus reading, ever wonder why bus ridership is declining throughout the country despite population migration towards cities? Check out this article in the @UpshotNYT @nytimes nytimes.com/interactive/2020…
NYT reporters @emilymbadger and @qdbui wrote a fascinating article featuring our paper with @transitmom, "Who's ditching the bus?" (coming out in Transportation Research Part A, @Transport_ELS). 1/4 Preprint available: arxiv.org/ftp/arxiv/papers/2…

Check out our paper with @LeRh_A @manue_lab describing how Cas9 naturally regulates transcription in a bacterial pathogen! Out in today's issue of @MolecularCell @SIDDHARTHJAGGA1 @DWeissLab cell.com/molecular-cell/full…
