You don‘t have to review or read all of them… but where-ever possible you should select a society publisher! www.theguardian.com/science/2025...

Please share: I am hiring a postdoc that will work on enzyme characterization and engineering in the frame of the EU consortium project C5. Read all details here and apply until August 10: www.universiteitleiden.nl/en/vacancies...

We have been using this tool for a bit, with great results. Very cool approach to make something complicated very simple

Our most recent review on the chemical ecology of cycad symbioses. nph.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.... Great collaboration with @shaylasalzman.bsky.social leading the paper! @evodivmet.bsky.social and all the authors (not in bluesky yet :( @universitelaval.bsky.social

The only thing I can say, after seeing what happened in DC today (and will happen in weeks/months to come) is that American people voted for TRUMP - VANCE. Let's not forget it, it is what it is.

This is a game changer .... Will hardly look back after using it!

Thursday: time for #MattersMicrobial Episode #81! Dr. Marc Chevrette talks about genome mining, secondary metabolites, and why microbes are the very best chemists. Please share the #GoodMicrobialWord. @profvrr @wildtypeMC youtu.be/QYGiAc4lRsk?...

Cycad's exhibition! Including microbes, yes, in a botanical garden (Hortus, Amsterdam). So nice to have contributed with some micrographs, knowledge (Kimber Zonneveld and Edder Daniel Bustos-Diaz, collaboration with Angelica Cibrian-Jaramillo) www.linkedin.com/posts/meta-m...

Great (mini) review on the Evolution of Specialized Metabolites.

1/10 A 🧵of resources to learn about AlphaFold (2 and 3). IMO, the best way to get started with AF2 is "AlphaFold. A practical guide" from the EMBL-EBI. It explains how AF2 works in plain English, without code, and covers key metrics like pLDDT/PAE/etc. www.ebi.ac.uk/training/onl...

We're delighted to announce Fidele Ntie-Kang (University of Buea) as the winner of the 2025 Natural Product Reports Emerging Investigator Lectureship! 🎉 Read more about Fidele and his research here: blogs.rsc.org/np/2025/02/0... #NatProd #PlantScience

While Bacillus researchers gather for BACELL in Amsterdam (17-18 June), Actinomycetes aficionados will be in Egmond aan Zee at the same time this year June 👇 cc @gillesvanwezel.bsky.social #ISBA2025 Registration and abstract submission here: tinyurl.com/ISBA2025

Join us for ISBA2025 on Actinomycetes at the lovely beach of Egmond aan Zee (NL), from June 15–19, 2025. Topics include development, drug discovery, ecology and pathogenicity. universiteitleiden.nl/isba2025. Registration and abstract submission here: shop.paylogic.com/574b03bd08ee... #ISBA2025.

Hey Plant Scientist/Botanists: any advice on PhD travel/visit fellowship to support a visitor from China to our labs in the Netherlands? Societies, organizations, donors?

From my former PhD student and PD, Karina Gutierrez-Garcia. Super cool story.... (She is applying for tenure track positions). www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

Such a nice gift on the post today: an award-winning book on the history of viral pandemics (for the general public) from my former student, before in Mexico and now at Grenoble. Aldo R. Camacho-Zarco, now an structural virologist, always a great human being. Can't wait to read it! (En Español)

Dear North American fellows, here the Mexican... We all love America (as you call your country), we all care about it, we all need it, we all admire it, we all hope for the best.. But I was wondering if we could leave American politics to X, or to actions locally. Just wondering.
