Why are "Pseudomonas aeruginosa infections so difficult to treat—even when #AMR isn’t the main factor? In our latest opinion paper, we explore emerging persistence mechanisms and present the latest concepts in the field. dlvr.it/TL3brB

1/18 Las bacterias resistentes a los antibióticos son como ladrones que han aprendido a forzar todas las cerraduras que usamos para proteger nuestra salud. Llevamos décadas sin inventar cerraduras nuevas y los ladrones se han muy eficiente. Esta es la crisis de la resistencia a…

(1/5) Venoms are a vast, largely untapped library of bioactive molecules—and our new paper in @NatureComms @NaturePortfolio reveals just how powerful they can be. 🐍⚡️nature.com/articles/s4146…

Esta es la famosa Foto 51 de Rosalind Franklin, primera imagen del ADN y símbolo de precisión, descubrimiento y mirada al interior de la vida. Esta imagen cambió la forma de entender la vida. Hoy nos inspira a cambiar la forma en que nos mostramos al mundo. #CNBrebranding #DNAday

Thank you @ssmfgrants for highlighting our research!

One of the biggest problems with the world is that fools are always so sure and certain about everything and intelligent people are so full of doubts and uncertainties.

Having an incredible time at #BMSV2025 in Cape Town! The sessions are insightful! Excited for what’s next!

We found that many bacterial species use exogenous peptidoglycan fragments - released by lysis of neighboring cells - as a general danger signal, triggering a danger response that protects bacteria against many dangers: biofilm formation. Details👇: nature.com/articles/s4156…

Hello, I am looking for a #Postdoctoral researcher with experience in bacterial genetics and antimicrobial resistance. Please send me a CV and a brief summary of your lab experience! Thank you!

@felixrl_ took on a ~50-yr-old mystery in #Staph aureus cell biology and came out on top! Check out his paper on how #Staphylococcus aureus chooses its cell division plane, how it forms clusters, and why all this matters during infection... nature.com/articles/s4156…

It’s a great honor to receive the SSMF grant from @ssmfgrants and be invited to the ceremony. I had the pleasure of meeting several brilliant researchers and attending an intense and fascinating talk in Swedish #ResearchCommunity #AcademicLife #SwedishScience #Networking

Torrens and Cava explore how bacteria modify their cell walls in response to environmental challenges in this #BiochemSocTrans mini-review. Check it out for more on the diverse variations in peptidoglycan and their associated adaptive role. doi.org/10.1042/BST202…
