Our group’s inaugural PhD 🎉🍾
Toasting the successful & excellent defense of Marleny. She is off to an exciting postdoc in Lausanne with Philipp Engel.
Congratulations, Marleny!
New publication: Specificity in obligate symbiosis
How specific are heritable symbioses? And what can we learn from swapping obligate symbionts across host species? We address this in our latest, led by Dr. Inès Pons, and in collaboration with the Ley Lab. Out today in Nature Communications!
Mutualism Lab at the John Innes Centre
After five incredible years in Tübingen, it’s time to say goodbye.
Starting February, the Mutualisms Lab will relocate to the John Innes Centre in Norwich, right next door to Aileen Berasategui and her group at The Sainsbury Laboratory.
There are several openings available for graduate and postgraduate training, listed in our Opportunities page.
Hassan, Aileen, and a local resident by the Norwich Cathedral.
New publication: Plant pathogens doubling as insect mutualists
Aileen and Hassan review how plant pathogens can “moonlight” as beneficial insect symbionts, enhancing vector nutrition, defense, and ecology. Out in Annual Review of Entomology!
