In the deep & HOT subsurface microbes live at high speed to cope with the heat. Our findings published now in Nature Comms. A huge team effort by IODP Exp. 370 & @radtracenetwork @CAbyNature @dr_clay @JensKallmeyer @usys_ethzh @ECORD_IODP @SeafloorSci https://t.co/ys5wXM0vBz

@amarietou @ISMEJournal @BiologyAarhus Great, congratz on pushing this one over the finish line! Very nice pice. Thanks for this collaboration and happy I could contribute. Greetz from Zürich.

The first documentation of active microbial sulfate reduction in serpentinizing systems bearing directly on the potential for long-term habitability in subsurface environments on and beyond Earth, where sunlight or the chemical products of photosynthesis are not available.

[Communications Earth & Environment @CommsEarth]

Microbial sulfate reduction is active in highly alkaline serpentinization fluids and could provide an energy source for subsurface life on Earth and potentially other planets.

@Cindy_brGDGT Still need to fix the chambers first. But sensors have arrived and will be tested soon.

@CassinMicro Suggestion for alternative answer: "Ok, brush your teeth for 2 minutes and I will tell you about these biofilms. It's cool stuff!" And try to do it in these 2 minutes at a 10 YO level. Will be a cool exercise for all. :-)

New paper in ISME Journal about microbial degradation of proteins and lipids in marine sediments - happy to contribute. Great work putting this together by @KennethWasmund and @claus_pelikan https://t.co/BNY7nf03bi

Hot off the press: New article from our group @emil_ethz published in PNAS, congratulations Dr. Deng!

So exciting! #EuropaClipper Go Go Go!

[Blue Marble Space @BlueMarbleSpace]

Huge congrats to @EuropaClipper! @NASA announced today that the mission has been confirmed to move into the next stage of development, and one step closer to exploring #Europa. A huge announcement for astrobiology, planetary science, and exploration!
