Replying to @ChristianSLentz

It works as follows:1. Apply fluorescent chemical probes for phenotypic profiling of bacterial cultures 2. Index-sort single bacteria. 3. Functionally determine cell fate (e.g. growth, antimicrobial susceptibility). 4. Connect cell fate with phenotypic profile at time of sorting

New preprint by the lab, led by @RoniMiah151091 introducing a programmable, selection-free CRISPRi system in S. aureus

Excited🙂 to introduce ppsf-CRISPRi system. Why and how we have developed this system?!
Special thanks to @ChristianSLentz (Project PI)

New article out in Comm Biol by 1st authors @HiraJonathan and Bhupender Singh. Check out if interested in a) Cellular phenotypic heterogeneity in bacterial pathogen populations & how cell individuality shapes pop. behavior b) S. aureus c) new applications for chemical probes.

Phenotypic profiling detects differential cultivability and antimicrobial susceptibility in isogenic, but phenotypically heterogenous bacterial populations.

Research dissemination is an art and it was mastered perfectly on scene by @jeanette_sg at Forsker Grand Prix Tromsø. Congratulations on reaching the national finale next week, which you´ll rock. Important contribution to generate public awareness about antimicrobial resistance.

Go @jeanette_sg!

Jeanette Grunnvåg er en av ni forskere fra Tromsø som vil konkurrere i årets utgave av Forsker Grand Prix.

Møt opp på Studenthuset Driv i kveld for god underholdning og forskningsformidling! 😀
