We have had a big two weeks in the Mevers lab
1. Paige successfully defended her PhD!
2. Both Joe and Arden passed their prelim exams!
3. Our latest publication is out! This one features @BTBChem with collaborations with @AjoFranklinLab and Hassoun lab! onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…
One final publication for 2024! This work was spearheaded by @CarlaMenegatti but was the ultimate team effort with collaborations with @apheloria, Anne Brown, Thomas Williamson, and Tappey Jones. So happy to finally be able to share this story. @VTChemDeptpubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs…
Fascinating research alert from Emily Mevers! @MeversLab focuses on natural products. Recent work includes psychedelic millipedes and their unique chemical defenses! These tiny creatures reveal new insights into chemical ecology and defense mechanisms.

Karla gave a wonderful talk on her work aimed at identifying the core microbiome of Moon Snail Egg Masses on the last day of the @SIMB_Microbio meeting in Boston. Preprint of her work: doi.org/10.1101/2024.07.10.6…
@Delta Our flight gets delayed for 14.5 hours in ROA because of mechanical issues. Pilot said flight was unlikely because crew rest so we elected to drive to Atlanta. Rebooking wasn’t available for 3 days. We told you we were driving, both the gate agent in ROA and via text 1/4
Check out another one of our open access paper. This one was a real team effort with contributions from @apheloria, @ImperfectFunGuy, and Tappey Jones. Congrats Paige Banks on the first, first author publication and to all involved! link.springer.com/article/10…
Check it out…Our group’s second publication of the year is online! Congrats @Lois_K_Kyei on her first first author publication from grad school. Awesome job by all co-authors. @CarlaMenegatti Karla Piedl and Ellie Miller | J. Nat. Prod. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs…
Three of us are participating in the bike MS Colonial ride and are cycling toward a world free of MS. Our goal is to bike 150 miles (Richmond to Williamsburg and back) over 2 days in support of one of our own. Join us in the fight if interested.
