🥳 New preprint! 🥳
While planning molecular screening experiments, we went deep down a rabbit hole on group testing strategies to improve throughput. We present PoolPy, a tool to facilitate the design of pooled experiments.
arxiv.org/abs/2509.03481
This is still preliminary, we're happy to take feedback!
Poolpy is also available as a web app:

🥳 New paper out!
In this work, we identified small molecule effectors modulating the activity of transcription factors in E. coli.
Using metabolomics + transcriptomics, we could parse the entire regulatory network and predict signal molecules for 41 TFs!

We are searching for a postdoc in Marine Phytoplankton Metabolism and Carbon Storage! You'll get the chance to combine high-throughput metabolomics and enzymes to study how microbes naturally sequester atmospheric carbon in dissolved organic molecules!

We are very excited to share new recent research from our lab! This has been a long-time effort, involving several fantastic group members and collaborators (@pedrobeltrao and @Jürgen) with @LaurentzSchuhk1 on the driving sit.

I have an open Postdoc position in Molecular Systems Biology at ETH Zürich!
The project is about the conservation of transcription factors functions between strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa 🧬🦠

I'm hiring another postdoc for my starting lab at @VIB_microbes to study microbial carbon fixation! We'll be deriving how enzymes in marine microbes inadvertently form stable molecules that are sequestered long term in the ocean.

I have an open position for a PhD student in molecular microbiology!
The project is about the role of transcription factors during P. aeruginosa infections 🦠🧬.

My lab is searching for a postdoc in microbiology/microbial metabolomics!
Are you a biologist who is secretly realizing you might be a mass spec nerd? If so, I can relate and I'd love to work with you!
Please check out more details here:

I’m excited to announce that I’ll join VIB-KU Leuven as a professor starting 2025. My lab will study how marine microbes capture CO2 and sequester it in ancient ocean molecules, taking an approach that combines microbiology, high throughput metabolomics and biochemistry.

Today in @ScienceMagazine, we report how a bacteria has evolved into a major human pathogen over the last 200 years. Read on, this is going to be an adventurous ride 1/n! science.org/doi/10.1126/scie…

Our big story on the importance of "stripy" T cells in antigen response, which started as a MSc Thesis 6 years ago, has finally made its way out in @ScienceMagazine! 🤩
Massive congrats to @BenHale95 & thanks to all collaborators particularly @LabOxenius & @blutspendesrk 🥰
Out now @ScienceMagazine: @BenHalePhD, @BerendSnijder & colleagues report that the internal architecture of T cells at the moment they are activated can influence their fate in response to antigen.

Cool work on E. coli transcription factors!

Is biology predictable? This is a hard problem, relevant across scales, from conservation to the human microbiome. Check this @NatureRevMicro paper by @AllisonLopatkin & James Collins. @BCNCollab @vdlorenzo_CNB @manlius84 @Daniel_R_Amor static1.squarespace.com/stat…
