Excited about Microbe in Atlanta (06/13-17), including the Biofilms Mini-conference (AES-MC-001, Thursday, 06/13, 1:30-4:00pm) and a session on host-associated biofilms (MBP-IDS-06, Saturday, 1:45-3:45).
Application deadline April 8 for the 2024 @montanastate @biofilmfirst @MSUExtremeBio Extreme Biofilms REU, a 10-week summer program for undergraduate students, providing hands-on research experience. Check out our website and apply! tbi.montana.edu/undergraduat…
Congratulations #ErikaEspinosaOrtiz. Just published in @BiofilmJournal a great review on the potential of bio- and biofilm-reactors for water treatment and resource recovery in space @BiofilmFirst @montanastatecoe @NASA sciencedirect.com/science/ar…
Wonderful, interactive and productive trip to @YellowstoneNPS after ELM workshop in Bozeman last week. Lots of good discussions. Thanks to #DaveMogk at #MONTMSU for lots of insights on the Geology and @HeveranChelsea and @ProfCJHernandez for co-organizing
Great Engineered Living Materials workshop last week. Thanks to all participants from ~15 Universities, 20 companies, and 4 governmental agencies or labs. Thanks to @HeveranChelsea and @ProfCJHernandez for co-organizing and the @BiofilmFirst for meeting logistics, etc. #ELM
So proud of graduate students Adrienne Arnold, Breuklyn Opp, @JessicabearWood, and Charles Holcomb for their poster presentations at AlgalBBB in Waikiloa Hawaii last week. #Algae @BiofilmFirst @montanastate
Oh ... and we had some fun with collaborators as well. #SridharViamajala @UToledo
The @GerlachLab at Montana State University (MSU) is seeking a postdoctoral researcher with experience in reactor-based cultivation of algae & cyanobacteria, molecular techniques, microbial ecology, and analytical chemistry; more details at linkedin.com/posts/robin-ger…
Congratulations Sobia ! A few revisions to your dissertation draft and it will be officially Dr. Anjum. It was an honor to serve as your advisor, mentor and PhD committee chair. The lab will miss you. – at Bozeman, MT
What a joy to celebrate Sobia Anjum's dissertation defense! Congrats Dr. Anjum on a job very well done. I've so thoroughly enjoyed watching the growth of your science, mentorship, and communication! Congrats and good luck! @AnjumSobia15 @GerlachLab @BiofilmFirst
Interesting read
I believe almost all of us can improve their time management and self-accountability

How can microbes like those that form kidney stones be harnessed to build practical materials? The CBE's own Erika Espinosa-Ortiz will discuss how fungi and bacteria can be engineered to create materials that can substitute for cement. #BiofilmFirst bit.ly/3Lp1vnn
