Paracetamol remains an important option to treat pain or fever in pregnant women. Following rigorous assessment of the available scientific data, we find no evidence that taking paracetamol during pregnancy causes autism in children. Read more 👉 www.ema.europa.eu/en/news/use-...

It’s great to be at #mbkceesme2025 so far, hearing about all things microbial! It’s always rewarding to present one’s work and hear the community’s feedback. Thanks for the support @isme-microbes.bsky.social

Interested in the design of defined microbial communities for fundamental research and applications? Hope this work & tool will help you 👇 As always @tcahitch.bsky.social has been a driving factor ⭐⭐⭐! github.com/ClavelLab/Mi...; academic.oup.com/ismej/advanc...

Holy cow - hyperspectral detection of bacteria at long distance.... "The bacteria were detectable outdoors under ambient light from up to 90 m in a single 4,000-m2 hyperspectral image taken using fixed and unmanned aerial vehicle-mounted cameras." 🤯 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Jan Erisman closed the 28th European Nitrogen Cycle Meeting with a raw reminder: the nitrogen cycle is out of sync! Still, the meeting was full of inspiring research on all things N and some promising paths to reduce our impact! Big questions remain… #ENC28 univie.eventsair.com/enc2025/

Great podcast recording with Nicole Geerlings for #MattersMicrobial about weird and wonderful cable bacteria! I truly enjoyed the session. Releasing next week. @nmjgeerlings.bsky.social

@juergenzanghellini.bsky.social kicked off the 10th Metabolic Pathway Analysis conference yesterday, hosted @univie.ac.at. A nice use of EFMs but despite Jürgen’s years of attempts, I’m still not convinced that the best ice cream is found at Schwedenplatz

Today wrapped up our 4th summer school on Economic Principles in Cell Biology organized by @economic-cell.bsky.social at the beautiful @univie.ac.at 🤩 Huge thanks to all the students, teachers and @cecamevents.bsky.social for the support! ✨️ See you next year!

Out in @natbiotech.nature.com: Metagenome taxonomy profilers usually ignore unknown species. SingleM is an accurate profiler which doesn't, even detecting phyla with no MAGs. Profiles of 700,000 metagenomes at sandpiper.qut.edu.au. A 🧵

An awesome resource for probing who, where and how often specific microbes are found!

I'm happy to announce the latest release of the GlobDB, available at globdb.org. The GlobDB is a database of "species dereplicated" microbial genomes, and as of release 226 contains twice the number of species-representative genomes (306,260) than the latest GTDB release.

I am super excited to share our new preprint "Contribution of ammonia oxidizers to inorganic carbon fixation in the dark ocean". This has been my absolute favorite project from my Postdoc at the Santoro Lab (UCSB) and @dome-vienna.bsky.social 🌊🦠 biorxiv.org/cgi/content/...

Some thoughts on this call to action: I am very optimistic on future applications of industrial and environmental microbiology for environmental remediation and sustainable bioproduction - it's a big interest of mine! - but some caveats to be realistic about: 1/n academic.oup.com/ismej/articl...

Love this idea for helping the community make the transition to Bluesky, so I’ve compiled a woefully incomplete list of microbial ecologists and -omics peeps I know are here. Please make suggestions and share. Let me know if you’d like to be added. go.bsky.app/TQpaTqF
