Fitness compensation in M. tuberculosis: A game of genetic chess

It was a pleasure to write this short blog post for the Microbiology Society, talking about my latest paper on fitness compensation in M. tuberculosis, and the process that led to this work.

🖋 Apart from a very short summary of the paper I hence also describe parts of my PhD journey and what led @philipwfowler and I towards this particular project.
