Call for early registration for BBM2024! Register/Submit your abstracts by April 3rd! 30th year birthday 🎂😎bash of bacterial genetics🧬🦠, physiology, host pathogen interx, & phage! Keynote speaker is one of 🇨🇦 finest phage biologists @joeBondyDenomy ! 🔥
Reminder that this year's Early Registration/Abstract Submission deadline is April 3rd! This Wednesday! Also quench your bacterial genetics thirst! and try this delicious new offering at a media kitchen near you. bostonbacterial.org/registration/
Happy International Women's Day! some of the most amazing microbiologists in the Boston area are women trainees and PIs I admire and appreciate! :-) 🦠😎🙌
Dr. @JayCdoesID gave a fantastic talk today at Tufts! So great to hear about interventions to address healthcare disparities in BIPOC communities - Bench science/translational work regarding AMR pathogens and vaccines can only be as effective as public health measures reach!

bostonbacterial.org/registration/ Check out lodging info in link above! Affordable overnight stays available since BBM2024 is at BU! Boston accent voted #1 most annoying! "Hey kehd --- I heard BU's got affahdable housing for this year's BBM2024! " "Sick dude, that's wicked pissah"
Spread the word and smash that repost!🔥 Until March 1st: Scholarships for registration are available to help make this bacteria meeting more accessible for URG trainees & undergrad researcher! 🧑🎓😎 bostonbacterial.org/scholarships/ Present your work or learn about microbiology! 🦠
Now's the time to register for BBM2024 for the 30th anniversary Meeting! bostonbacterial.org/registration/ But you won't have to worry about those Carbon emissions since you're probably local and carpooling🚗/taking public transit🚂🚃🚃🚃! 😉😎
Happy Feb 1st!💞 Join us burst 💥with excitement like a phage in lysis cuz 😁: BBM 2024 is now open for registration! It's the 30th bday of BBM 🎂 🎈 🎉! Where were you in 1994? (I was a newborn with the 🎁 of a microbiome 🦠 😝) bostonbacterial.org/registration/ See you all there!😎
Join us at the Forsyth Symposium Sept. 14-15 in Cambridge, MA to brainstorm & plot a course for the oral microbiology of the future! Register for in-person or remote: forsyth.org/the-oral-micro…… @ForsythResearch @BostonBacteria
So excited to finally share this work!! We found an unexpected repurposing of canonical division enzymes during the evolution of endospore formation and some surprisingly unique aspects of cell division in C. difficile. Check out our preprint: rb.gy/j5uvc
Today for Pride 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️we celebrate @micro_marian Dr. Mar Schmidt, an assistant prof @CornellMicrobio! They study how aquatic environments affect bacterial communities and evolution! Mar hopes "biologists bring their whole selves & empower the diversification of academia!"
So very excited to share this preprint! We’ve found that bacteria use an evolutionarily distinct but incredibly similar mechanism to eukaryotes of transducing mechanical stimuli across the lipid bilayer. Starring SEAL (SEA-like) domains 🦭: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
🎉🎉OMG🎉🎉 I just got my very first RO1, to develop a predictive diagnostic for #Lyme that would allow us to distinguish between disease trajectories and I am SO excited about what my group together with the Lauffenburger lab are going to be able to discover with this support!!!
Beautiful and important work on how peptidoglycan synthases are regulated. Congrats Irina!! 🎉 Irina gave a fantastic talk on this work at BBM '22 last year and was on our organizing committee this year 🤩

Today for pride, we celebrate Dr. @GeoSantiagoM! Geo is Mexican-American and studies the regulation of cellular processes in methane-producing archaea @UConn ! Geo also works with orgs/societies of DEI efforts to make science inclusive for all!
What is ASM doing to advance #IDEAA? We're at the #ASMicrobe IDEAA Town Hall to hear panelists Joel Oppenheim, Dioscaris Garcia & Amy Reese discuss cultural inclusivity in the microbial sciences, including solutions, ways to grow & where we go from here.

We got our first #R01 grant. I am deeply grateful to everyone who has supported our research program over the past 5 years. Special thanks are due to our collaborators, postdoctoral researchers (especially @chr_martina), and my colleagues within the @BiologyBC and @BostonCollege.
My favorite sciencey podcasts right now: 🐌 Gastropod: food + history + science. Yes please. I especially like how often they feature microbes on the show 🧪 This Podcast Will Kill You: history and the biology of diseases What are you currently listening to? #SciComm
I am so grateful for my nominators and the Academy for this great honor. My academic work has been enriched in countless ways from my many different interactions with ASM over the years making this especially meaningful to me.
Join us in congratulating the 65 new fellows elected to the American Academy of Microbiology! Fellows are elected annually through a selective, peer-review process based on their scientific achievements and original contributions. See the full list: asm.social/1Id
Today is International Day of Women and Girls in Science and I say thank you to my all-female all-stars team @wardaarman @WendelinMarmol Maya Gelbard, Miranda Grace, Annika von Schoeler-Ames and Hermoine Xian for doing such a great job @TuftsGSBS @TuftsUniversity @TuftsMedSchool
Come join us for the 3rd Joint Symposia on Epstein-Barr Virus, Kaposi's Sarcoma Associated Herpesvirus and related agents in Boston, June 29-July 3. Meeting website ebv.ksvirus.org Registration is now open. Abstract submission deadline is March 4
Check out our contribution to @JBacteriology's 'Special Series on the History of Microbial Model Systems' with a fantastic review by postdoc Brandon Sit @sit_brandon journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/jb…
13 years ago I attended my first BBM and it changed my science (and my life). Can't wait to attend and speak at this great meeting!
BrrRRrr! ❄️☃️It's cold out! Even COOLER news: SAVE THE DATE 🗓️📢 BBM 2024 will be held June 3-4th, 2024 at the Boston University campus! This year will be the 30th anniversary🔥 feat. keynote speaker @joeBondyDenomy🇨🇦of UCSF who studies the coolest phages😎❄️ around!
It's been an exciting start to 2024 with publication of Lizzy and Gonzo's work on structure of the NEC's suppressor mutation and such a wonderful academic year of rotation students - see more updates and fun on heldweinlab.com SUP paper here: doi.org/10.1371/journa…
Super excited for to help organize this year's BBM! Looking forward to a bunch of great science from faces old and new, so save the date for this great annual meeting!

Excited that @TwistedBacteria, Editor @NatureComms, highlighted @shailabshrestha's finding that C. difficile (and other clostridial organisms?) mediate division in the absence of FtsW-FtsI homologs. In collaboration with @SGribaldo and Najwa Taib nature.com/collections/je…
Really happy to have this officially published! Thanks to @ShenLabTufts, @SGribaldo, and Najwa for their amazing support! Give it a read if you’re interested in bacterial cell division, spore formation, and the evolution of PG synthases that drive them: nature.com/articles/s4146…
So excited to finally share this work!! We found an unexpected repurposing of canonical division enzymes during the evolution of endospore formation and some surprisingly unique aspects of cell division in C. difficile. Check out our preprint: rb.gy/j5uvc
Join us at the Forsyth Symposium Sept. 14-15 in Cambridge, MA to brainstorm & plot a course for the oral microbiology of the future! Register for in-person or remote: forsyth.org/the-oral-micro…… @ForsythResearch @BostonBacteria
C. difficile is like a home chef who always has to put their own spin on a recipe, or a driver who turns the GPS on but knows a short cut. So many conserved pathways whose components generally travel through genomes as a unit are just weird in this organism!
C. difficile’s division mechanism is even more distinct because the conserved divisome components FtsL, FtsQ, and FtsB are not essential during normal growth. So, how does C. difficile divide if most components of the divisome are missing or non-essential? 7/9
