Postdoc position available in microbial biochemistry at University of East Anglia (UK). Laura's lab does excellent work on ammonia monooxygenase and ammonia-oxidising bacteria and archaea. Please retweet if appropriate. Details below.

Ammonia-oxidizing archaea have similar power requirements in diverse marine oxic sediments nature.com/articles/s4139…

mandatory reading: academic.oup.com/femsec/advance… "Rethinking microbial infallibility in the metagenomics era" It was fundamentally the enrichment method, based on biochemical predictions and environmental calculations, that led to such remarkable anammox & comammox discoveries :)

We are hiring! Our group is looking for someone who is passionate about microscopy and perhaps also likes molecular biology. 🔬❤️🔬 #fungi #microeukaryotes #plankton 👉tinyurl.com/a7te4x7h

Nitrite-oxidising bacteria perform a key step in the global nitrogen cycle. In our latest at The ISME Journal, we show one of the best-known nitrite oxidisers -- Nitrospira moscoviensis -- primarily relies on hydrogen not nitrite in natural environments. nature.com/articles/s4139…

⚡️Azerbaijan has initiated a massive artillery attack against Nagorno Karabakh, targeting cities and civilians on a large scale. After imposing an 8-month total blockade on 120,000 Armenians, subjecting them to starvation and enduring moral and psychological hardships, they are

How does one get OD reading when your bacteria grows like this? I have several actinos from eelgrass sediments that do this.
