An Update! 🎉 I am so happy to announce that in May 2025, I will be joining the University of Minnesota as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Microbiology & Immunology. My lab will study host-pathogen interactions during Klebsiella systemic infection.
It's that time of year! Registration and abstract submission for the 6th Klebsiella Seminar Series is now open. Participation is free and abstracts are due by February 16th. See the link below for details: forms.gle/gxbvaC6FjzuSPt… #KlebClub
I'm so happy that this paper is finally published! This one was a long time coming: 9 years, 3 pairs of hands, 270 strains, 93 plasmids, and a lot of hard work. It started as a side project that eventually led to my entire dissertation, and I'm glad it did.
Superb @mSystemsJ study by @RuthlessRuth15 et al from @markjmandel Functional analysis of cyclic diguanylate-modulating proteins in Vibrio fischeri "protein OE to systematically characterize the functional potential of all 50 V. fischeri proteins"❗️ journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/ms…
New article!✨In this review, we present a broad overview of bloodstream infections, consider microbial pathogenesis mechanisms, and discuss how these strategies could be used in future therapies. #KlebClub
Bloodstream infections: mechanisms of pathogenesis and opportunities for intervention Holmes, Bachman & co. explore major pathogens causing bloodstream infections, their pathogenesis, opportunities for prevention, diagnosis & treatment options.
#KlebClub planning is back in session with our TWO NEW MEMBERS!!! Make sure to send a big congrats to Juan Valencia and @tomstantonmicro!!

New pre-print up today! We used bacterial barcoding to measure infection kinetics during bacteremia initiation from the lung. This collaboration was so fun (@KHullahalli and @kg_dailey) and the results were unexpected!
