Woohoo! Yay! Big congratulations Bill!! Very happy for you! 🎉👏

Years ago while I was weighing the offer of a faculty job here a very senior British scientist in my field sniffily told me “They’ll never give you tenure” But that turned out to be one of their less good predictions, and I am now not only a full professor - but with tenure



Thrilled to share our new paper on Listeria monocytogenes in New York in collaboration with NY Dept Health! Most from blood, CSF. We found diverse lineages, intrinsic & mobile AMR & virulence genes, persistence across geographical & temporal scales @odionikh

Ikhimiukor and coll reconstruct the population genomic structure from 936 Listeria monocytogenes isolates throughout a two decade surveillance program in NY, identifying long-term persisting clones driving the local infection dynamics @CheAndamMicro 👉genomemedicine.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.11…



Super happy that our recent paper on bloodstream Klebsiella is featured in @NatureComms Editors' Highlights in Microbiology and Infectious Diseases nature.com/collections/je…

New MGen paper from the lab: 5 centuries of evolution of Campy jejuni in Brazil with the talented @BuiatteAna @sr_stephanie @odionikh @MicrobioSoc microbiologyresearch.org/content/journa…


Big congratulations Karin! 👏👏👏 What a privilege to have taken your course (genomics and bioinformatics) many, many years ago!

Well done! @sr_stephanie Long-term genomic surveillance of bloodstream pathogens is critical.


Another very important event in our lab! Lunch International Food Fest! #LIFF24 @odionikh @sr_stephanie @kathrynpiper_ @manumog @JoseARodrigues8

New first-author paper out on @npjAMR. Genomic evaluation of S. aureus from bloodstream infections over 12 years. ST8 took place over ST5 at some point. The rise of ST8 associated to a very clonal population with same genetic background. 1/3 nature.com/articles/s4425…


New findings published in #mSphere provide important insights into the underlying genetic basis for the success of S. aureus as a highly adaptable and resistant pathogen. @CheAndamMicro journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/ms…



Maybe a lifetime supply of EXPO markers for our lab? 😁

EXPO markers are one the pillars of science! Andam lab crew on @UAlbanyLSRB Halloween 2023! @CheAndamMicro @manumog @BuiatteAna @kathrynpiper_ @CampyloBoocter

Wonderful session and great co-chair to have!

Successful session on HGT (or the origins of hopeful monsters) organised with @CheAndamMicro at #SMBE2023. Thanks again to our wonderful speakers: @goyoiraola @Lucy_Weinert Talia Karasov, Héloïse Muller & Fanny Mazzamurro!

Happy to share our new paper @iScience_CP! We use an agent-based model to study cooperation in a public goods game. We show that homologous recombination provides a mechanism to enforce cooperation in bacteria cell.com/iscience/fullt…


3 of them from my lab! 👏

Having a fun time at @TheRNAInstitute @ualbany in our first #Latinlunch sharing and learning from our friends. @manumog @shulin303 @sr_stephanie We wish more friends will join us next time!!!

More sugar Stephanie? 😄

Enjoy the warm weather with us at the Capital district postdoc association: Today we enjoyed spring with ice cream🍨🍦 Last saturday we met at the Troy Festival! Keep an 👁 there is more activities to come!

Yes we all love to eat! Fish festival next time?

Some lab members at #ASMicrobe, and the rest at this important event that took place today in Albany. First Brunch International Dessert Festival. On #BIDF2023 we deeply explored the sugar levels of different countries and continents. @manumog @CheAndamMicro @odionikh @BuiatteAna

Thanks @BostonBacteria for the recognition!

Let's celebrate Dr. Cheryl Andam, associate professor at Univ. at Albany (SUNY)! Her lab studies population genomics and antimicrobial resistance in pathogens! Looking at different bugs + mechanisms that drive drug tolerance! is important for combatting this threat! #AAPIHM

A fantastic lab to be part of!

A blast end of semester with an international food festival and farewell party to our lab assistant #Marven, who is going to Med School. 9 countries and 4 continents represented. This is the beauty of science! @CheAndamMicro @odionikh @manumog @kathrynpiper_ @MaestroLimpioNY
