We had a strong showing from Fuqua Lab members at the fantastic 2026 Molecular Genetics of Bacteria and Phages Conference in Madison, Wisconsin (clockwise; Allan Gramillo, Lauren Augusta, Clay, Carter Collins, Gail Hardy, Ian Reynolds, and Zander Nguyen). For this photo on the Lake Mendota Terrace, we were joined by Fuqua Lab alum Nate Feirer (front left), and Miyashiro Lab member Landon Teeter (seated next to Nate).

See our new latest pre-print for a study led by grad student Ian Reynolds, with current and former undergrads Isabel Westin and Caleb Wood in the lab. A study that goes to show how so many cell surface processes are connected to each other in bacteria.
