PhD pos available in our lab. You into imaging + bacteria + gut organoids? Apply here before Nov 22: jobb.uu.se/details/?position…
The pos is one out of twelve in the exciting new #MSCA doctoral network SurfEx. Read all about the calls here: surfex-project.eu/
RT appreciated.
Get maximum comparability between the strains in your infections - simply mix them all together and use the mix to infect your model! Or why not many of the same genotype? 🤯 @dimartino_ml and @SellinLab tells you how in this methods paper:
Want to level up your bacterial host cell binding/invasion assays? Our #BarcodedInfection protocol uses genetically tagged bacterial strains for precise infections of cultured host cells and in vivo animal models. In the new MiMB Bacterial Pathogenesis: link.springer.com/protocol/1…

This #ImageJ macro will make you (and your laptop) feel warm. Code in the ALT text.
Long ago I ordered a print of a pixelated version of a Salmonella bacterium from BioArtBot.org, who printed it with live fluorescent E. coli. Just sent me pictures of the result - pretty cool! 😍

Finally out: mScarlet3
A brilliant and fast-maturing red fluorescent protein.
Congrats to the teams of Dorus Gadella and Antoine Royant!

Today we finally published the genomic analyses of hair locks from world-famous music composer Ludwig van #Beethoven. The #genome offers clues to his health and family history! 🧬💇♂️ @CurrentBiology buff.ly/3YZEVY0 (credits: Beethoven-Haus Bonn; T. Begg)

Want to do an exciting post-doc in host-pathogen interactions, using great microscopes and bleeding-edge host models? Apply! Fantastic group and supervision = fertile soil for you to grow. 🌱
Opportunity!: Fully funded #postdoc position open in our lab. We seek a candidate to combine live cell imaging with enteroid/colonoid models of gut bacterial infection. Sample papers & movies below.
RT appreciated. Apply through link until April 5th.

Yesterday was my last day at the @SellinLab at @UU_University. Going to miss this place. Today enjoying the first of a few days off before a move and then onto my next adventure! #bittersweet
Doing my (likely) final infection experiment at the @SellinLab! Let's see how these #Salmonella interact with the cells! 🔬

Here's a great, easy-to-read summary of the work we do in the lab! And in proper PPE! 🛟
The @SellinLab at SciLifeLab has grown intestines and managed to film when weak spots are attacked by aggressive bacteria. They now hope to be able to understand other bacterial infections in the body ↓

Tomorrow I'm running my last progress report for the @SellinLab. Such an occasion begs the question: shalt one wear one's #phdsword..? ⚔️

With my geom_terrorbar() you too can now use Ts for errorbars just like they did in that genius paper! Read more in my latest blog post mival.netlify.app/blog/2023/…
Happy new year!
