Congratulations to rockstar PhD candidate @hannah_goemann for being awarded a NIFA predoctoral fellowship to torture some plants (as we do!) and examine plant-microbe interactions and root exudates!!!! 👏 🥳

First issue of the @ISMEJournal showing the image I took of the multicellular magnetotactic bacteria I study. The image will grace the cover of the journal for the entire year of 2022! What an honor! Huge thanks to @environmicrobio for the opportunity!

Great opportunity for those working on agnostic biosignatures and approaches for detecting life as we don't know it to present their work at #AbSciCon22!

#Biofilm research is booming! Since the founding of the #CBE in 1990, the number of biofilm papers published has grown from 206 to a staggering 83,578. #biofilmfirst #MontanaState
PhD students sought for fellowship in “extreme biofilms” at Montana State Univ. You would gain professional development & experience researching biofilms in extreme systems. Apply by 1/28. Stipends of $34k are available for 2 years of a PhD program.

Please RT. The Danish @Hadal_Center & @Nordcee at Univ. Southern Denmark is looking for 3 PhD students to study: Microbial Metabolisms in Deep Sea & Hadal Systems; Deep-Sea Microbial Degradation of Organic Matter; Benthic Carbon & Nutrient Cycling After Sediment Resuspension. 1/n

CRISPR technologies are powerful gene editing tools because they are programmable. We are excited to describe 3 new programmable systems, IscB, IsrB, and TnpB, some of the most abundant genes on the planet, with potential for gene editing. @ScienceMagazine science.org/doi/10.1126/scie…

Here is a radical idea:
How about requiring senior faculty to express their commitments & contributions to DEI before asking junior faculty and applicants to write DEI statements that many aren’t even qualified to evaluate because they have never done the work
I said it 🙊

Researchers @EMSLscience, with @environmicrobio & Qian Wang @montanastate published a new mRNA-FISH protocol. fliFISH uses on/off cycles of photo-switch dyes to set predetermined threshold for distinguishing true signal from background noise. Read it here: tiny.cc/6be2uz

Watch @reichart_nick @montanastate talk about his @doescience Graduate Student Research (SCGSR) experience with @twoyke and Bob Bowers @jgi @LBNLBioSci. @environmicrobio @NERSC @BerkeleyLab youtu.be/DpLPFDuBqHE
Sad to hear of the passing of the great scientist, Thomas Brock. Thank you for the massive work you did to advance the field of extremophile research.
Sad news in #Microbial #Ecology
Tom Brock has passed away
“Invented” extremophile research
His 1966 text Principles of Microbial Ecology remains (alarmingly) relevant in 2021
