Congratulations to these award-winning @UNMC_PathMicro graduate students, honored Tuesday for their efforts in 2024-25. From left: Francis Fontanilla, Dylan George, Reegan Sturgeon, Arif Sadi, Madison Love, Gabrielle Schulze, and Taylor Burke.
Lab Updates 🙌 🎉 - Maggie Sladek has successfully defended her Master's thesis! - Graduate student Arif Sadi has passed his comprehensive exams and is now a PhD candidate. - We will be recruiting a PhD student this fall.
Happy Holidays !!! 🎉 #Gilklab
We have a new review from Rajendra Angara, Margaret Sladek & Stacey Gilk @sdgilk (UNMC) about how intracellular pathogens parasitise the interface between lipid droplets and the ER journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.11… Their focus is on the differing strategies of SARS-CoV-2 and Coxiella
The December issue is online: embopress.org/toc/14693178/2… The cover features work by Stacey Gilk @sdgilk @UNMCCOM identifying a novel #bacterial effector protein that mediates ER-LD #membrane contacts to regulate host #lipiddroplets. -> embopress.org/doi/full/10.10…
Our work featured on the cover of EMBO Reports 🎊🔬

Congrats to Gilk Lab postdoc Ragendra Angara, for receiving the UNMC Postdoctoral Excellence in Research Award! Check out his beautiful story on a secreted bacterial protein which forms ER-lipid droplet contact sites, recently published in EMBO Reports. embopress.org/doi/full/10.10…
Honored to be the recipient of UNMC Postdoctoral Excellence in Research Award. Huge thanks to my incredible mentor @sdgilk for her unwavering support and guidance. This wouldn’t have been possible without you 🙏

Beautiful work @Rajangara from the @GilkLab! Congratulations!
Excited to share that our preprint on novel Coxiella effector protein, CbEPF1, has now been accepted in EMBO reports! embopress.org/doi/full/10.10…
Check out the great work by very talented @Rajangara.
Big thanks to all 3 reviewers for their constructive feedback, which helped us add new insights into LD localization signals and evidence for ER-LD contacts during Coxiella infection
Excited to share that our preprint on novel Coxiella effector protein, CbEPF1, has now been accepted in EMBO reports! embopress.org/doi/full/10.10…
Preprint alert!🚨 We present an exciting discovery from our latest study. A story of bacteria's ability to establish inter-organelle contacts beyond the typical bacteria containing vacuole. Why and how? Let's delve into this short thread.
