Excited about microbiomes and want to study them at the single-cell level? Join our team to pioneer research using microfluidics paired with automated timelapse microscopy. We're hiring postdocs to push the boundaries of microbial ecology! Apply now: apply.interfolio.com/165601

Our lab at FSU in sunny Florida is looking to hire a fully funded postdoc position in natural products discovery and/or biosynthesis in Actinobacteria! We utilize new strategies and modern synthetic biology tools to unlock new chemistry and molecules. kalkreuterlab.com

🚨 Our new paper is out in Nature Communications! We show that marine biogels can slow the sinking of organic particles by up to 45%, reshaping how we think about the oceanic carbon pump. Slower sinking = more degradation = less deep-ocean storage. 🔗 doi.org/10.1038/s41467…

Job Call: My lab is hiring for a new phase of studies on symbiotic microorganisms and their molecular mechanisms. Candidates with a strong interest in symbiosis, microbiomes, Drosophila, and genetics are well poised to love the work. Know anyone? psu.wd1.myworkdayjobs.com/en-US/PSU_Staf…

Be sure to read in our latest issue this review from István Molnár, Peng Xu, Bo-Bo Zhang & co. at VTT Finland, Guangdong Technion Israel Institute of Technology & Shantou University on harnessing microbial co-culture to increase the production of known secondary metabolites Find it here🔽 pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art…

This is a must-read for everyone involved in metabolomics. Personally I love this article because I no longer have to write a long paragraph when I say 'please don't use pathway analysis' during peer review 🤣 nature.com/articles/s4225…

📣🦠 Request for input! Have you used or thought about using the Digital Microbe framework (nature.com/articles/s4159…) in your research? If so, please send us a DM - we would love to hear from you!

I'm truly excited to announce our new publication in nature unraveling a central picture of the Methyl-coenzyme M reductase (MCR) activation machinery and it's strong ATP dependency - kudos to Anuj Kumar for the fantastic illustration! LINK: nature.com/articles/s4158…

The collaborative Microbiome Stewardship team of bioethicists, bioinformaticians, host microbial ecologists, and soil microbial ecologists, published a commentary on the concept and need for microbiome stewardship in mSystems ! sueishaqlab.org/2025/04/16/com…

😲Did you see that viral video of an #anglerfish from Condrik Tenerife...and think it was too bizarre to be real? It wasn't an influencer gimick! #WHOI biologists share their theories about why this #oceantwilightzone animal was at the surface: go.whoi.edu/anglerlight

🧠 Are you a physicist, engineer, chemist, or coder curious about life sciences? 🧪 Challenge the boundaries. Take risks. Go international. Apply for an #HFSPFellowship! The 2026 call is OPEN 💪 🌍 Deadline to start application: 7 May 2025 🔗 zurl.co/ffHmt #sts #hfsp

New paper out in Nature Catalysis! We used a retrobiosynthesis approach to engineer PKSs for the production of new-to-nature valerolactam analogs. Later, we developed a strategy to polymerize these monomers to create novel nylon-5 derivatives. Check it out nature.com/articles/s4192…

We have openings for motivated and curious individuals to join our team microbialeco.systems

Biotech people are so traumatized by the GMO debates from ~20 years ago that they still think people will automatically reject anything labeled GMO and that “acceptance” is downstream of detailed technical knowledge of molecular biology. Meanwhile…
