Interactions with other bacteria can cause Streptomyces coelicolor to turn on antibiotic production. How do they do that? It turns out they use an unusual regulatory system called a conservon. Check out @BaileyBonet's latest publication to learn more! journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128…

Guess what? Beetle nests all over eastern North America have antibiotics in them! Read about it in our latest eLife publication, with @Rita_Pessotti as the lead author! elifesciences.org/articles/6…

It's a fitting day to congratulate @Rita_Pessotti because her new manuscript is out! Rita joined our lab in 2017 and used her knowledge in microbial specialized metabolites to explore the interactions between beetles and microbes. Check out her manuscript: elifesciences.org/articles/6…

Today we want to celebrate @BaileyBonet! She was our lab's first grad student who earned her PhD and is now down in SoCal working for an AAV engineering startup called Capsida Biotherapeutics. We miss you as our 'genetics ninja,' but we are proud and wish you the best of luck!
