New research in #GENETICS from @NMatange and colleagues showcases canonical and non-canonical strategies employed by #Ecoli to survive in low levels of spectinomycin that facilitate genetic adaptation for acquiring antibiotic resistance. Read more: buff.ly/JDGOm41
Not all persister bacteria are dormant! 🦠 Single-cell imaging of over a million #EColi shows that many antibiotic-resistant persisters were actively growing before drug exposure. Persistence appears to be more dynamic than once thought. elifesciences.org/articles/79517…
This is indeed a serious concern. Please intervene @IndiaDST @DrJitendraSingh @PMOIndia
@IndiaDST @DrJitendraSingh @karandi65 We are fellows of DST-INSPIRE Fellowship in India, not recieving any amounts from last 13+ months, barely surviving and struggling to make our ends meet. No clear answers, no timelines on enquiring. @narendramodi Sir, please intervene.
Special Call for PhD intake in Biology @IISERPune This is for Dec 2024 CSIR-UGC-NET qualified candidates, whose results were recently announced. Check out details on the IISER website. The flyer lists labs taking students. Look up labs, too. Kindly RT. iiserpune.ac.in/education/admi…
We have 2-3 Ph.D. positions in chabalab.org @IISERMohali. Students interested in understanding how bacteria sense & adapt to nutrient availability & stress conditions, please apply. Deadline: April 10 iisermohali.ac.in/admission-news…
My lab will have an open position for a PhD student to work on the micro- and macro-evolutionary dynamics of immunity and host-pathogen interactions, blending theory, experiments, and computational methods. @AIRSAIndia @IndiaBioscience @ResearchSchola6 ashoka.edu.in/programme/phd-…
