🚨 Centre for Microbiome Research is looking for talented PhD students with an interest in environmental microbiology! More info here: tinyurl.com/yc6fevsj. Please share! 🚨


Exciting to see our paper finally published in the prestigious The ISME Journal with the new partner Oxford University Press. Following our previous NC paper, we found ‘Ca. A. nitratireducens’ also can anaerobically oxidise ethane and butane! Thanks to all authors!

Glad to see our paper titled "Coupling Nitrate-Dependent Anaerobic Ethane Degradation with Anaerobic Ammonium Oxidation" published on Environmental Science & Technology Environmental Science & Technology Journals pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.10…



A research team led by Mengxiong Wu Jianhua Guo of UQ ACWEB UQ News found that synergistic interactions between aerobic #methanotrophs and perchlorate-reducing #bacteria play active roles in mediating methane-driven #perchlorate reduction. ES&T: go.acs.org/aji


Looking forward to the upcoming #ISME19 conference at Cape Town, South Africa! I will be presenting our recent work on newly discovered anaerobic ethane propane oxidation bacteria! We also have a poster discussing anammox coupled to SCGA oxidation! See you all ISME - International Society for Microbial Ecology






Your abstracts and workshop proposals for IWA #MEWE11 (Atlanta, USA; mewe11.ce.gatech.edu) are welcome as early as possible these 2 weeks (not later than Dec. 15th). If you need a letter for visa application, contact conference organisers early as well. International Water Association MEWE IWA
