🇻🇳 What a great week at the BPHCI Conference in Vietnam! @j-toinon.bsky.social and @angieprrt.bsky.social enjoyed sharing their results on M. marinum–Dicty interactions. A small crowd, but packed with brilliant science and great vibes! 🥂

Fluorescence lifetime estimation: a practical approach using Flipper-TR FLIM by Juan Manuel Garcia-Arcos and team: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Excited to share Wendy Le Mouëllic’s PhD work, now published in @pnas.org!
It reveals that M. tuberculosis depends on inorganic sulfate import to survive inside host cells—fueling essential processes such as redox balance and stress resistance.
Huge congrats to Wendy & colleagues!

Merci 😊

Our last paper just came out ! A great piece of work from the talented Laura Onillon and teammates with the pleasure to share this adventure with friendly collaborators @vincentdlft.bsky.social and @soldatilab.bsky.social !

Out today, we report how small chemical modifications in the metabolism of ergosterol are needed for yeast membranes to phase seperate into ordered yet fluid domains www.science.org/doi/10.1126/... (1/n)

🚨 Great story released by @gm-charriere.bsky.social and co.!
They identified and characterised a natural interaction between amoebae and Vibrio, pointing to Paramoeba as a potential reservoir of oyster pathogens 🦪
Congrats! 🥂

🤩 Last week I successfully defended my PhD!
It was such a special day, made even better by having friends, family, and colleagues there with me. Thanks for all the support and kind words!
Huge thanks to my jury members for the thoughtful feedback and conversations.

🤩 Great start to the #EMBOcellBioHostPath!
Justine had the honor of kicking off the Soldati lab presentations with her fantastic poster!
Not too late to catch up if you missed it!
📍Stay tuned for @nabilhanna3.bsky.social poster tomorrow and @mel-foulon.bsky.social talk on Thursday!

Did you know the cell wall of mycobacteria isn’t just for protection? 🧱👀 Here, Mycobacterium marinum sheds its outer capsule right after being eaten by Dicty! A sneaky move that affects even nearby cells… #FluorescenceFriday #Mycobacteria #CellBiology #Infection #3Rmodels #Phagocytosis

Congratulations to Dr. @guallar-garrido.bsky.social on her new lecturer position at the Autonomous University of Barcelona! She will keep working on mycobacteria using amoeba host model. Best of luck on this exciting new chapter! 👏🔬✨

🇨🇭 What better way to start than with a tradition renewal ?
