New tenure track assistant professor position in molecular microbiology in our department @DMF_UNIL @unil! We are casting a wide net for an experimental molecular microbiologist. Apply here: wwwfbm.unil.ch/releve/applica…
Thrilled that our lab has been awarded with an ERC Advanced grant. We will study the molecular mechanisms that lead bacteria to acquire antibiotic resistance. Exciting science ahead!!! #ERCAdG @ERC_Research
📣 Good news: 281 top researchers have just won ERC Advanced Grants! The new funding, worth nearly €721 million, is part of the 🇪🇺 EU’s #HorizonEurope programme. Read more 👉 europa.eu/!JYKxkD #ERCAdG #FrontierResearch @EUScienceInnov
🔬Proyectos del #CSIC sobre la resistencia bacteriana, el monacato en al-Andalus y la microbiología marina reciben ayudas Advanced Grants #ERCAdG 👉Cada equipo recibirá del @ERC_Research cerca de 2,5 millones de euros durante cinco años ➡️ tiny.cc/un5n001
Richard Losick is coming to @uniofwarwick to deliver a series of lectures on groundbreaking discoveries in molecular biology!
New work from the lab with @jrpenades! We discovered a biological entity that spreads among different bacterial species by hijacking tails from various phages. This finding has major translational applications due to its broad host range. More news soon! shorturl.at/kRJqE
Apply now, spread the word: three (3) fully funded Helmholtz research groups (assistant prof level) with attractive packages. Topics: RNA-based medicine, microbial RNA, and RNA-based infection research incl. RNA technologies. Great environment for young people. Come and join us.
A huge step in understanding the biological role of flotillin and membrane microdomains. Led by our very own Marta Ukleja 🇵🇱🙌🙌🙌 with the help of @CavaLab_MIMS, @mateus_lab and (twitterless) Ana Eulalio :-). @CaixaResearch funding. rdcu.be/dMWvC
We are looking for a PhD student to work on characterizing protein glycosylation of a major species group in the human gut microbiome. Apply until 31/May! umu.se/en/work-with-u…
Bonnie Bassler & Pete Greenberg receiving today the Prize Princess of Asturias for Scientific Research—the top Spanish award in this domain—for their pioneering work on bacterial quorum sensing. 1st time Mol Micro makes it to this public & well publicized recognition in Spain 👏!
Is there any microbiologist on Earth who doesn't know Roberto Kolter? We'll have the pleasure to have him in the @CNB_CSIC this Friday (watch out the time) and listening to some of his thoughts & wisdom on a range of topics of interest to the Micro-community 👇
Are you interested in molecular microbiology? At the @lopesrra lab, we have several open positions to explore the molecular mechanisms in bacteria that are associated with hard-to-treat MRSA infections and antibiotic resistance. Check out the add below 👇👇for details.

A new paper from our lab is out today after peer review: science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…
