I'm thrilled to share that I've joined Dr. Pam Ronald’s lab at @ucdavis to study how plants evolve multi-pathogen resistance, and in the long-term, build upon sustainable agriculture practices. As pivot into this field, I'd love to connect w/ folks in the ag & climate space!🌱🌎

🌟Our latest results are now published at NAR🌟 We hope that AntiDefenseFinder will enable scientists to further uncover the natural diversity of inhibitors (or regulators) of known bacterial defense systems. Recap below!
Excited to introduce AntiDefenseFinder - a free, open source tool that detects anti-defense systems in any genomic sequence. Available here to toggle on/off: Read below for our insights into the >47K detectable systems📈

A special example of collaboration and curiosity-driven science: Phage sponge proteins sequester signals across TIR- and cGAS-based immune systems 🧽🦠Congrats to @femtokot alongside @joeBondyDenomy and Yue Feng labs for the incredible work! Learn more ⬇️
I am very proud to share our paper on Tad1/Tad2 sponges, which appeared to be multifunctional anti-defense proteins that inhibit many different signaling-based immunity systems!💫
