Today was an inspirational reminder of why I love biology, physics, & the scientist that do both so well. Thanks so much to friend and colleague @fleshball.bsky.social for sharing and potentially changing how biomed folks think about bacteria. Exhausted, & yet don’t recall feeling more invigorated 💪

70+ degrees in Chicago yesterday. Came out of a restaurant tonight after a thunderstorm—40 degrees and quarter-sized hail!

Congrats Dr. Ahmad on an exceptional performance and defense! Be on the lookout for Saadman’s latest study on the neat relationship between peptidoglycan and Lyme disease pathogenesis #microsky

Invited to give a talk by graduate students-who DRIVE research nationwide-is easily one of the greatest honors for a PI. It’s even better when one of your former mentees is the host! Thank you Tanner and @harvard.edu Micro for being a bright light in these dark times. 🙏 Science will prevail 💪

May is #Lymedisease awareness month. Spreading the word by sharing our cover image of the new issue of Science Translational Medicine. The issue has two papers that provide a new possible Lyme treatment while enhancing our understanding of Lyme disease symptoms #sciencenews #HHS #chronic_disease

About to give our 9-month old a bath & felt something on my foot! Meet Dermacentor variabilis (American Dog Tick). This tick species doesnt carry Lyme, but can carry other nasty bacteria Punch lines: 1) Ticks are out and 2) this was in our fucking bathroom (but prolly came in on dogs)
