Is it “winner-takes all” when the simplest living things compete? Check out my fresh publication on phage coexistence in Science and a thread below🧵 science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Super excited to share my postdoc work on Monday at #Evol2024! Come hear about the role of a prophage in the thermal eco evo of a strain I collected in the Long Island Sound 🔥🧫🌊
Postdoc @_cathyhernandez (Mon, 10:15-10:30AM, 516E) will present her work showing how the thermal ecology and evolution of a marine bacterium is shaped by the temperature-dependence of an integrated phage 🌊.

Thank you @maxplanckpress for this opportunity to start my first research group!! I am recruiting at the MSc, PhD, and student assistant levels. More info on how to join us coming very soon ☺️🦠
Great news!! 🥳😊 Reena Debray @DebrayReena (seen here w/ the Otto Hahn medal awardees) was chosen for a Minerva Fast Track position. Her new research group will start @MPI_EVA_Leipzig soon & will study the gut microbiomes of non-human primates. 🐒 reenadebray.wordpress.com

Thank you to all who attended and participated in our annual #YaleClimateDay event last week! We were happy to host six speakers from outside of Yale, as well as a poster session and photo contest with submissions from our graduate students and a few post-doctoral associates.

What did the large virus say to the little virus?
Get lost, you CHEAT!!
We are enjoying a #QBioBreakfast chalk talk by @AsherLeeks from @PaulTurnerLab on viral cheats in data from real patient samples.

Can the simplest living things coexist 🏘️ in the face of competition?
We found that bacterial viruses (phages) could easily form diverse communities, even though they shared the same resource 🍝 (an isogenic host population) (1/7)

The latest work from our lab where we conduct the largest experimental validation of gut phages to date!
This included >2000 anaerobic incubations, >900 viral DNA extractions, and >400 genomes seq. This work was led by our PhD grad @SofiaDahlman
