As 2025 wraps up, we’re looking back at some of the most intriguing microbes that made their scientific debut this year. This blog highlights standout bacterial species that caught our eye. Read the full #FEMSmicroBlog: buff.ly/2wz7k16 #NewMicrobes

How effective are AI assistants like Claude and ChatGPT for literature reviews? Anton Nekrutenko ran a systematic experiment using multiple AI-assisted approaches to survey RNA-seq studies on Candida auris, a multidrug-resistant fungal pathogen. Summary here: galaxyproject.org/news/2025-12...

Huge preprint if you are interested in bacterial strain taxonomy! The why and how of cgMLST LIN codes: An extensively revised and expanded version doi.org/10.1101/2024... I will summarize it for you in this thread 👇

📢🚀💻Le nouveau site internet de l’IFB/ELIXIR-FR est en ligne !!! Lancé début 2025, le projet de refonte/création du nouveau site internet de l’IFB/ELIXIR-FR atteint aujourd’hui l’une de ses étapes cruciales : sa publication ! www.ifb-elixir.fr

Our paper describing the GlobDB is now published in @bioinfoadv.bsky.social doi.org/10.1093/bioa... The GlobDB is the largest species dereplicated genome database currently available, containing 306,260 species representatives. More information on globdb.org 1/5 🖥️🧬🦠

🧬 🔎 Ce 17 novembre a eu lieu la journée du consortium ABRomics à l’Institut Pasteur. L’occasion de présenter aux différents représentants de nos parties prenantes l’avancement du projet et les développements en cours !

De mon côté on m'a confié le micro pour la chronique sciences. Cette fois j'ai décidé de parler du fonctionnement scandaleux de l'édition scientifique, peu connu en dehors des labos : www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yg2C... Mais 4 minutes c'est court, alors j'ajoute quelques ressources ci-dessous !

Dimanche dernier @ladernierenova.bsky.social était de retour à Toulouse. L'invitée de l'émission était @docteur-drey.bsky.social donc je recommande chaudement d'écouter le podcast entier : podcasts.nova.fr/radio-nova-l... @laradionova.bsky.social ...

Know metagenomics and could spare 2 mins? I'm applying for funding to build a visual repository for metagenomic classification data (not sequence data). To support the application, I have a short 2 minute survey and it would be a big help if you could fill it in: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

It was a really nice week working on building MiCoReCa, a catalogue of resources (tools, workflows, etc) for microbiome research, and more importantly networking with the large @elixir-europe.org community. Thank you all! See next year!
