The last 2 days, researchers of @bokuvienna.bsky.social TU Vienna @tugraz.bsky.social @univie.ac.at Uni Graz met to kick off the Excellence Cluster Circular Bioengineering. Great science in the pipeline, funded by @fwf-at.bsky.social

Microbiologists, take a bit of your time to advise FEMS online! Learned societies are the backbone of science - let's support them (and let them support us)

3 DAYS TO GO⏳ Every bit of feedback makes a difference. By taking part, you will help identify the priorities and challenges facing microbiologists across Europe and ensure that your perspective is represented at the European level. Don't wait, complete the survey now. buff.ly/ZghfWnM

You can meet me there tomorrow!
