No one had ever imagined the existence of cable bacteria: life based on internal
electric wires. We aim to unravel how this unique form of life functions.

The 7th Internat. #cablebacteria Workshop😊has officially begun at wonderful Sandbjerg Gods of the Aarhus Universitets Forskningsfond. 4 days of CB conversations, talks, posters. We are thrilled to host more than 50 CB enthusiasts gathered to share and discuss CB research and expand the cable community!
We are on the second day of the #cablebacteria workshop! Discussions between researchers from different organizations spark invaluable new thoughts and ideas 💡. Sandbjerg Gods facilities allow great opportunities to socialize and get to know fellow researchers 🧑🔬
What a crowd 7th. Intern. #CableBacteria Workshop w 54 participants 🤩 lined up in 🇩🇰 from >13 research institutes e.g.: TU Delft, VUB, Forschungszentrum Jülich | @[email protected], Foshan University, Guangdong Academy of Science, Universiteit Hasselt, NOVA , JMU, UAntwerpen, University of Cyprus, USC, Aarhus University
🎉Huge congratulations to Mie Mai on successfully defending her Master's thesis today! Supervised by Ugo Marzocchi. It has been a pleasure having you at CEM, and we couldn’t be happier to continue having you here for your next steps! Congratulations Mie, we are very proud of you!👏
What?! Our supply of cable bacteria is not infinite?! 😫 No worries, we just need to collect some more sediment from time to time 😎. Our last trip was to Marselisborg Harbour, with laboratory technician Dimitri and postdoc Leonid Digel getting some more of our valuable cables 💪
Pleased to share our work on interactions of cable bacteria with electrodes, published in AppEnvMicro journal journal. Great collaboration with Robin Bonné, Ugo Marzocchi, Lars Peter Nielsen and others at Center for Electromicrobiology. My sincere thanks to all coauthors. Link: journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/ae…
Congratulations to Robin Bonné Ian P.G. Marshall Jesper Bjerg Ugo Marzocchi Jean Manca Lars Peter Nielsen Kartik Aiyer and others involved for their amazing work published in AppEnvMicro journal 🎊 This paves the way for electronic control of cable bacteria! 👀: journals.asm.org/doi/epub/10.11…
Have you ever wondered how it feels to be a microbe? Robin Bonné takes us through an immersive journey as a microbe in the soil. Check Robin’s amazing Cable Bacteria Concert (1:23:50 - 1:42:00) with the Swedish Radio Symphony Orchestra here: berwaldhallen.se/en/play/upcomi…
Are all microbes electroactive? ⚡️ In this perspective, @digelleonid, @bonnerobin and Kartik Aiyer explore how microbial electroactivity could be a universal metabolic trait spanning across the domains of life. Read more here: cell.com/action/showPdf…
