Thanks to the support of the ISME - International Society for Microbial Ecology Scholar Fund, today I joined Rafael Laso Pérez at the Museo Nacional de Ciencias Naturales. During my time at the museum, I will start collaborating on the ARGOS project (acronym for "Antimicrobial Resistance by metaGenomics Overview in a Sewage system").


After a couple of weeks at the Museo Nacional de Ciencias Naturales (supported by the ISME - International Society for Microbial Ecology scholar fund), I had the opportunity to introduce myself to the community of the museum. Moreover, I also presented my plans and future work on the ARGOS project with Rafael Laso Pérez.



The piece was inspired by recent trip to Red Sea, where I saw both thriving reefs and those killed by heatwaves. I met Raquel Peixoto and team, who develop coral probiotics that boost reef resilience. Vital work in the race against climate crisis #CoralRestoration #MicrobiomeScience
