So proud to call you my friend and can’t imagine the things you and your future lab members will accomplish. They’ll truly be lucky to have a mentor like you!
Come join us in Breckenridge, CO next May (2026) for the Beyond Antibiotics: Emerging Strategies for Combating Bacterial Infection
Keystone meeting! More information below:
New preprint on some of my dissertation work.
Can’t do this without an amazing team of collaborators or mentor.
Herein we use a genetically resistant mouse model to explore small intestinal colonization resistance to S. Tm, and the ability of diet to overcome genetic resistance.
More to come!
#Mentoring acknowledges individuality, empowering mentees to develop into independent thinkers, who recognize, embrace, and celebrate their unique voices.
Hello Bluesky!
My name is Nic Shealy, a PhD candidate in the lab of @maribyndloss.bsky.social.
I study bacterial metabolism and am enamored by microbe-microbe interactions and microbiota-host interactions! Not such a small world after all.
Haha you’re too kind but I can’t accept that title. Might be the boss, @maribyndloss.bsky.social!
And happy to help with the chamber! I was just the self help line you call for advise, you did the work haha!
