Just out.. on how to use "cyanobacterial probiotics" in ecological restoration of arid soils. So excited about this advance to get us closer to the goal! @ASMicrobiology @cyanofriend

Excited to share this video where phages i.e, virus that kill bacteria, are transported by a baterial swarm. Phages are in green, swarming bacteria are in gray.

Want to learn how phage tranport improves the rate of disruption of a biofilm? Check out our new preprint (1/n)

1/ "Cajón de Sastre" or "Taylor's drawer" is a metaphor used to designate a big mess. Now out as preprint, a monumental effort to tidy up the taxonomic mess of filamentous cyanobacteria in soils crusts by Vanessa, Ana and Daniel, our forever heroes.

.@ASU's Arvind Varsani calls himself a “nomadic 'viral' scientist,” both in person and on Twitter (@Varsani_lab). He also calls himself an adventurer, and with good reason. To date, he has pursued research of all kinds on all seven continents.

Corey is getting ready for the finish line!
You are invited to hear about cyanos with a taste for umami and about biocrust probiotics.

Congratulations go to Kevin Klicki on the completion of his PhD!

Happy to share that we received the Scialog award from @RCSA1 @AllenInstitute and the Cottrell foundation. Very excited for our ongoing investigations of the connection between microbiome and neurodegenerative diseases @asuSOLS @ASUBiodesign @bcfam_asu @dave_durgan
