MicroMates: Oceanic Odyssey A card game where science meets adventure – dive into the invisible world of microorganims!

Check out MicroMates: Oceanic Odyssey by Minkor AB on @kickstarter.com www.kickstarter.com/projects/170...

We just launched the Kickstarter campaign of MicroMates, a card game that brings the hidden world of microorganisms to life in a fun, colorful, and scientifically inspired way. Please back us up and spread the word! micromates.se

Our study ‘The global human impact on biodiversity’ is out in Nature!

Through an unprecedented synthesis (2133 studies!) we show that humans are not only shrinking species numbers—but reshaping entire communities across the planet. 🌍🌐🐟🌿🪲

We sampled a "fjord-lake" last year near Tromsø (Norway) to study microbial processes in oxygen-deficient conditions with a focus of methylmercury production and anoxygenic anaerobic photosynthesis. Hope you will like our documentary!

Two decades of bacterial ecology and evolution in a freshwater lake Nature Microbiology - A 471-metagenome time series from Lake Mendota in Wisconsin, USA, reveals seasonal and decadal shifts in bacterial functional and ecological dynamics, especially in response...

After 24 years of work, I’m thrilled to announce the TYMEFLIES dataset, which comprises metagenomes from Lake Mendota (Madison, WI), collected roughly every 10 days (471 samples) for 20 years! @quendi.bsky.social @robinrohwer.bsky.social

Hydrogenotrophic methanogens overwrite isotope signals of subsurface methane Methane, a greenhouse gas and energy source, is commonly studied using stable isotope signals as proxies for its formation processes. In subsurface environments, methane often exhibits equilibrium iso...

Bad news for people using C isotopes to differentiate between methane of biotic or abiotic origins:

I am looking for an ERC-funded postdoc to work on spatial proteomics of microalgae (red algae and glaucophytes). The ideal candidate will have experience with mass spec and data analysis (R), but above all a keen interest in broad eukaryote evolution and protists #protistsonsky (1/2)

The 3rd Ancient Environmental Genomics PhD course (2025) is now open for registration. This has been a true pleasure to teach (and hard work) both times. Come join us and have a week of in-depth hands-on work with ancient metagenomic data and the latest analysis tools. phdcourses.dk/Course/124659
