Our November issue marks the launch of our new Series on best practices in microbiology. We hope it acts as a 'living textbook' with an expanding collection of articles that push us towards better microbiology research. nature.com/collections/fg…

Amazing and congratulations Gianni Liti !!!!!

I have a manuscript at review at Environmental Microbiome Microbiome. The editor sent out review intivations at 09 Oct 2024. Now it's 1st December and I have not heard anything. No replies after writing them several emails. 🥲

New paper alert! Fungal communities in tropical forests show extreme turnover at fine spatial scales. Our study highlights the need for multi-habitat approaches to understand fungal biogeography. …ronmentalmicrobiome.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.11…

Our preprint is now out on BioRxiv! biorxiv.org/content/10.110… ⁉️How can we enrich helminth signal directly from 💩 to help us study worm populations? 🪱 1/🧵

You can now download the entire community matrix for ~83,000 samples (with metadata) and ~75,000 fungal taxa with just one click! Explore the GlobalFungi database.

Sporulation is one of the most fundamental traits of fungi, but do we know its genetics? We explore this in mushroom-forming fungi a new Current Biology paper Zhihao Hou, BRC Biochem. Csenge Földi Hongli Wu Mate.Viragh Xiao-Bin Liu sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

New preprint on convergent AM symbiosis losses is now on bioRxiv! Our study shows an almost mutually exclusive evolutionary pattern between mycorrhizal symbiosis and carnivory in plants, with intriguing exceptions. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

We developed MetaFlowTrain, an easy-to-build, highly parallelized, and cheap fluidic system for discovering microbial bioactive molecules, studying exometabolite-mediated cooperation/competition in microbiomes and much more. 👏 Chesneau Guillaume Give it a try: nature.com/articles/s4146…

Asking online - what would be a good lab retreat schedule? And what would be the most memorable activity? Any suggestions are welcome! PS We are doing a two day lab retreat after the whole lab is attending conference/forest sampling!

Very happy to share our latest work: The evolution of thermal performance curves in response to rising temperatures across the model genus yeast | now available in PNAS pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn… Special thanks to my great co-author Stelkens Lab

We had two great 'Night Science' workshops on the creative scientific process in Heidelberg yesterday (at EMBL and at the EMBO PhD Course). Here are the slides if you're interested in running something like this at your place! docs.google.com/presentation/d… Martin Lercher
