Very proud to have our lab’s first work published in @cp-cellhostmicrobe.bsky.social! In this work, we use functional metagenomics to find phage defenses from human and soil microbiomes! Congrats to first author @luis840alberto.bsky.social ! www.cell.com/cell-host-mi... (1/3)

Metagenomic selections reveal diverse antiphage defenses in human and environmental microbiomes
Rodríguez-Rodríguez et al. use functional metagenomics to identify hundreds of sequences from diverse environmental bacteria that block phage infection when expressed in E. coli. Their discoveries inc...

My lab’s first preprint! We used functional metagenomics to identify phage defenses in human and soil microbiomes. We scaled these selections while maintaining accuracy, enabling us to examine 9 habitats for defense elements against 7 phages. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... 1/10
