Applied Microbiology International is to lead a new conservation committee dedicated to the protection of microbial biodiversity. IUCN has approved the creation of the first-ever Species Survival Commission (SSC) group dedicated to microbial biodiversity. www.the-microbiologist.com/news/ami-to-...

Join us at this meeting to learn more about AMI's key achievements and strategic progress made during 2024. You'll also be invited to: 🟣 Approve the minutes of the 2024 AGM 🟣 Approve changes to our Articles of Association 🟣 Welcome new trustees and thank those retiring from the Board

🌍🦠 World Microbiome Day shout-out: we’ve just unveiled the Microbiota Vault—a planetary backup for microbial diversity. Built on equitable, One Health values & linked to the new IUCN SSC Microbiomes. Read our Nature Comms piece: doi.org/10.1038/s414... #MicrobiotaVault #Conservation #WMD2025

I’m so proud to be a part of AMI. Congratulations to the whole team!

A new type of immune defense discovered in E. coli turns viral machinery against itself. Dubbed "Kongming" after the Chinese military strategist who used enemy's weapons to defeat them, this novel immune signaling pathway could benefit the future of phage therapy: www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

If an #H5N1 pandemic starts tomorrow or in three months, there will be little mystery as to how it happened. The conditions are all there. They have been for a while. So in some ways the more interesting question to me at the moment is: Why aren’t we in a pandemic yet? Story here, 🧵 to come: 🧪#IDSky

Not only is it authored by a few of my scientific idols, it also has a foreword by Jared Diamond?! I need this book now! Check out the new book by Paul Ehrlich and Rodolfo Dirzo of Stanford and Gerardo Ceballos of UNAM bit.ly/3BjimXZ

Hey microbiologist friends! What bugs like to grow in coffee?? 😅 (Note to self: Don’t forget to wash out the coffee pot next time you go on a month-long trip…)

Today, 14 journals published the same call-to-action. It succinctly outlines microbe-based strategies to combat the climate crisis. The authors volunteer to spearhead the creation of a task force, but need our help! Contact them @ [email protected] www.the-microbiologist.com/news/scienti...

New preprint up! We sequenced hundreds of samples from across one of Earth's oldest living organisms - the Pando aspen clone - to understand how mutations accumulate and spread in long-lived clonal organisms. Our results were…surprising. 1/30

Tried to put together a Microbial Evolution starter pack, but there were so many great people I didn't want to leave out it turned into 3 starter packs Comment or DM me if you were missed or would like to be added! A thread (1/3) go.bsky.app/6pkuYhi

The last chapter of my dissertation describes E. coli diversity in wildlife at Stanford’s Jasper Ridge & offers insights into the role of humans in the occurrence of antibiotic resistant & pathogenic strains. Thanks to my co-authors and collaborators🙏🏼 Read it now! www.cell.com/iscience/ful... (1/8)
