Happy to have contributed to this work, which reminds us to proceed with caution when relying on new antibiotics

The common bacterial pathogen #Saureus quickly evolves resistance to a range of experimental and recently approved #antibiotics, according to a new systems analysis that could inform future drug development efforts. @Csaba_Pal_Lab @SysbioS scim.ag/4gQmPBp

📢 Thrilled to announce our latest research in @CellCellPress! We've created a global ‘superbug map’ for a critically antibiotic-resistant bacterium to inform #phagetherapy 🧵1/11 cell.com/cell/fulltext/…

Happy to have played a part in this project spearheaded by @SergeyVMelniko1 group, goes to show what kinds of exciting biology can be discovered by studying extremophiles!

Bacteria have an astonishing ability to put their life on pause in the face of stress and starvation by entering a state of dormancy. Here, we discover one aspect of this remarkable self-preservation strategy: nature.com/articles/s4158…

Our preprint @joeBondyDenomy on a newly discovered bacteria immune system against a group of nucleus-forming jumbophages is out (biorxiv.org/content/10.110…). We named this immune system “JUmbophage Killer” (Juk). 1/n

Very happy to announce I will be starting as a junior PI this fall @BiologicalRese1! Many many thanks to all of my colleagues and mentors in the labs of Gyorgy Posfai, @Csaba_Pal_Lab, @joeBondyDenomy, @LarsMSteinmetz who have helped me along the way!

We are thrilled to announce that two former postdocs @BCsorgo and Viktória Lázár return to the BRC and establish own research groups with the help of Lendület (Momentum) grants. Congratulations! mta.hu/mta_hirei/tize…
