@CellPressNews
. A labor of love with
@HiIngmer
and Dan Andersson.
How is resistance maintained in the absence of antibiotics?
If resistance is lost, are bacteria primed for re-evolving resistance?

I have the best supervisor ever. She was invited to present at a conference but was not available, so she recommended me as a speaker. Me, and my 9 citations from a 4th author paper. So my picture and "biography" will be on the website with all the adult researchers 😂😂😂

20 years ago I was a kid helping my dad sell fish behind this counter and my horizon was as far as my eyes could see. How I somehow ended up where I am today is beyond my comprehension and certainly beyond anything I could have imagined or hoped for then.

Wait, I think I'm onto something
1/There is no available birth control pills for men because of "side effects", so
2/Many women use hormonal birth control which reduces their menstrual flow...
All this time, has this been an evil plot to neutralize us deadly women????

A year ago, I was travelling home to France when I learned that my first paper was finally accepted. When I arrived at my moms to tell her, she was dead. We would always worry when we received good news because it meant something bad was coming. She would appreciate the irony. 1/

Exactly, a lot of people seem to think that R or other programming languages are necessary for good research. It's a tool. I'd love to learn it, one day I will probably take the time to, but in the meantime I do intend on doing good research regardless of the softwares I use.

This is the type of view you get a few min away from Lausanne. To me this is what makes Switzerland so special. There are so many beautiful places in the world, but in Switzerland these places are right there on your way to work every single day.
