We've just published an article in The ISME Journal!
In the first project of Chiara Rezzoagli's PhD, we looked at the importance of bacterial social traits when colonizing C. elegans gut, and if cooperation via these social traits when colonizing can be undermined by cheating. This work was a collaboration with former PhD student Elisa Granato, and more information about it is available in this "Behind the Paper"!

After a fruitful collaboration with Sam Brown, Martin Ackermann and their teams, we've recently published an article where we look into how cost functions of cooperative traits lead to either individual or group-level optimization of public goods production.
Tobias Wechsler's MSc project was just published in the Journal of Evolutionary Biology. Here, we look at how policing evolves and influences public goods based cooperation. Another fruitful collaboration with Akos Dobay!
We have a new paper in Evolution, Medicine and Public Health!
This work was part of Chiara Rezzoagli's PhD project, and in it we tested if (and how) P. aeruginosa evolves resistance to two proposed antivirulence drugs. We have a new article in Environmental Microbiology! From Elena Butaite's PhD project, together with our current post-doc Jos Kramer and another fruitful collaboration with Stefan Wyder.
New paper out with our former PhD student Elisa Granato!
