We are very happy and proud we have contributed to this amazing story: An invisible force. A transparent substance. A forgotten woman. The untold story of Fanny Angelina Hesse (1850-1934), who introduced agar to the lab. fanny-hesse-graphic-novel.site

Celebrating science & sustainability at @mikrobiokosmos.bsky.social! A fantastic conference spanning ecology, biotech & health. Congratulations to the winners of the best talk & poster awards - your work truly stands out #mbkceesme2025 #Microbiology #Ecology #Biotechnology #OneHealth #ClimateChange

Stay tuned for the afternoon session where I will talk about forests! More precisely, the response of soil microbes to forest disturbances. Results from @holisoils.bsky.social and Lifegenmon projects. 🍄🍄🍄 Thank you for support @isme-microbes.bsky.social @mikrobiokosmos.bsky.social #mbkceesme2025

#LynnMargulis once said “… environment is part of the body [of any organism]… something that that is not fully appreciated in #ectoxicology tests. Maria Moustaka at #mbkceesme2025 showcases why this needs to change #scrubber #PAH #marine #pollution #IMO #plankton doi.org/10.1002/etc....

Had a great time yesterday with Konstantinos Kormas (@kkormas.bsky.social), Irene Ramirez Hernandez & Akbar Adjie Pratama (@adjiep.bsky.social) at the professional pathway lunch, part of @mikrobiokosmos.bsky.social. Thanks to @isme-microbes.bsky.social for making it possible! #mbkceesme2025

Microbes … to eat everything and to be eaten by everyone! #mbkceesme2025 #LeneLange #bioeconomy

Some scientific stories, like the one we just heard from @johncork.bsky.social at the #mbkceesme2025 on human harnessed and highly exploited #yeasts, could easily inspire a movie or a TV series!!!

Yes, there’s more to worry about how we do our science with microbes #bioeconomy #nagoya #biodiversity #cbd @unep.org Lene Lange in #mbkceesme2025

and first task done!! ✅ to hug @cpavloud.bsky.social after many many #MVIF events working together (online) @microbiomevif.bsky.social

#mbkceesme2025 people, if you see @microbiomevif.bsky.social card next to your poster number, that means we’re encouraging you to submit your work to present at one of our free, global, online, monthly #MVIF events! @mikrobiokosmos.bsky.social

It's great to listen to great talks at #mbkceesme2025 @mikrobiokosmos.bsky.social @isme-microbes.bsky.social @cristian-vi-al.bsky.social and Aleks Stanojković

👋 @mikeneugent.bsky.social On my way to #mbkceesme2025 🇬🇷 See you soon @mikrobiokosmos.bsky.social !

Looking forward to a few inspiring days at #mbkceesme2025 😊 Excited to present my research on how microbes respond to forest disturbances, and to catch up on th latest research. Bonus: revive/start using my social media accounts 😄

A very tempting publishing opportunity at #mbkceesme2025 link.springer.com/collections/...

📢 Dryad & @openrxiv.bsky.social are excited to announce a new partnership & integration. Beginning today, authors posting #preprints to @biorxivpreprint.bsky.social will have the option to upload #opendata to Dryad at the same time. Read more ➡️ bit.ly/4nHtcdA #preprint #openaccess #datasharing

bioRxiv now partners with @datadryad.bsky.social to facilitate transparent data sharing. Authors can add and connect their preprints to Dryad datasets without leaving the bioRxiv submission system. Once posted, a green checkmark on the preprint page indicates Dryad's curation. 🔗 buff.ly/KVS5YMi

It's publication day of my first book: The Tree of Life. The tree of life is a time machine that can take us back 4 billion years to meet our most distant ancestor. It is the magic that lets us tell the origin stories, beginning with this ancient relative, of everything from mushrooms to man.

Just one single gut bacteria is astonishingly sufficient to repress the antibiotic-resistant C. difficile infection. A real game changer from colleagues at the Center. AI and synthetic communities boiled it all down. Big vision by the trainees and faculty www.psu.edu/news/researc...
