- 08/23/2024, Congratulations to Fengjun on his paper " Dual feedback inhibition of ATP-dependent caffeate activation economizes ATP in caffeate-dependent electron bifurcation" published on Appl. Environ. Microbiol. Great work!
- 07/24/2024, Congratulations to Shun on his paper "Synergistic material–microbe interface toward deeper anaerobic defluorination" published in PNAS! Thanks to all authors on this paper, especially Rosie, Xun, and their advisor Prof. Chong at UCLA! Great team work!
- 07/17/2024, Congratulations to Yaochun on another paper about microbial defluorination "Electron bifurcation and fluoride efflux systems implicated in defluorination of perfluorinated unsaturated carboxylic acids by Acetobacterium spp" published in Science Advances! It discovers specific bacterial species capable of reductive defluorination of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) and implicates in the molecular mechanisms. This is one step further down the road of PFAS biodegradation study. Let's see how far we could go!
