Honored to have the support of @pewtrusts —thrilled to join such an amazing group of scientists.
Rockefeller's @Steve_Bonilla has been named a 2026 scholar by @pewtrusts! Steve is recognized for his work investigating how RNA molecules fold into three-dimensional structures to drive complex biological processes.
Congratulations!

Dear Mtb science friends. @richiam95 from our group has made an important update to our Mtb Transposon Sequencing Database. One can now explore co-essentiality signals (i.e. correlation in log2-FC profiles) across the ~150 screens. We hope it's helpful!

Proud to share our work out now in @Nature nature.com/articles/s41586-0…! In an amazing collaboration w/ Liz Campbell & Maddie Delbeau @DarstCampbell we identify the/a source of the fitness cost of rifampicin resistance (RifR) in Mtb and how some compensatory mutations rescue the cost!

Thrilled to share our latest paper @Nature ! Here we studied the mechanism of transcription for Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the deadly pathogen that causes TB. This is a fun collaboration with the wonderful @RockLabTB @DarstCampbell @RockefellerUniv (1/n)
