Tomorrow I will present work on global subsurface microbiomes at #ISME19. Session MS26 room 1.6 at 11:45. Here is a preprint: biorxiv.org/content/10.110… The study would have been impossible without co-first author Isabella Hrabe de Angelis and an international team of amazing colleagues! 🫶💯

My latest for Marine Biological Laboratory (MBL) highlights an absolutely wild form of cell division by C. matruchotii—a bacteria that lives in the human mouth. Instead of dividing into two, the bacteria splits into multiple cells at once, a rare process called multiple fission. (Watch the video)


How do interspecies interactions promote biofilm formation? How does cross-feeding influence bacterial stress tolerance? This EIC Jack Gilbert study explores these questions, providing new insights on the role of metabolic interactions in microbial communities. asm.social/23P
