#Bacell2025 in Amsterdam, great week full of Bacillus science. Thanks to Leendert Hamoen and the team🙏

Happy to had the opportunity to share my work at #BACELL2025 a couple of days ago!

Congrats to @mcaroec.bsky.social on winning a talk prize at #BACELL2025 !

4 poster prizes and 2 talk prizes (Martha Carolina Elizondo-Cantú @mcaroec.bsky.social and Robert Warneke @warneke.bsky.social) sponsored by BACIP (the BACELL industrial platform)
