Wild-Type Domestication: Loss of Intrinsic Metabolic Traits Concealed by Culture in Rich Media - Microbial Ecology
Bacteria are typically isolated on rich media to maximise isolation success, removing them from their native evolutionary context. This eliminates selection pressures, enabling otherwise deleterious g...

Glad to hear some good science on phage steering from my friend @sczerwinski.bsky.social this morning! I can't wait to continue to see how this research progresses.

Before starting my PhD, I completed my Master’s degree at Kennesaw State University, where I studied the micropredatory bacterium M. xanthus. I’m here for the science and look forward to learning from you all!

In other words I want to know how one member of the population is different from another in the same infection, and how these variants change together over time. My model system to study these questions is P. aeruginosa, a pathogen in the lungs of many individuals with cystic fibrosis.

I see that others are introducing their self, so I will too! Hello everyone! I’m Josh, a 2nd year PhD student at Georgia State University in the Azimi lab. I’m interested in intrastrain bacterial diversity in chronic infection.
