Stoked to announce our preprint on artificial selection of microbial communities (or community breeding, if you prefer) from Pablo Guridi, @arias_flora, @saramitri and myself

It's almost four weeks since the horrific terrorist attack on #Israel. A lot has happened, the public debate has become heated and confused. Find thoughts from Vice-Chancellor Robert #Habeck in the video, putting the events in context. 📣With English, Hebrew and Arabic subtitles.

last week I asked Carl if I could use the picture of us together in which he's doing a headstand for my defense acknowledgements, and he replied w/ "I'd rather you didn't, my posture isn't straight on that pic" so anyway we took a new one & if you wanna see it come to my defense!

@robynjournalist I liked that post with ~*emphasis*~

A few days after she becomes a World Champion and @Jennihermoso needs to deal with this shit. A bizzare joke that unfortunately still is the reality in the women’s game. What should we do to end these behaviors?

[anna-liisa laine @annaliisalaine]

I will soon open several post doc positions in my @ERC_Research Advanced grant. If you're at @icpp2023 and are interested in working on the ecology and evolution of natural plant-microbe communities both above- and below-ground, please reach out. I would be happy to chat more!

Once a year or so I ask people to tell us about their most underappreciated paper. A paper they believe made a real advance but was somehow missed by the community. I always find new gems this way. Please do tell us!

@arias_flora and @owbjorn's Alice Haym and Géraldine Alberti's crazy artificial selection experiment is finally out on biorxiv https://t.co/fI5Lz57sUJ showing that one can use this approach to optimize microbial communities of known species composition

Aquí tenemos a “Aspergillus flavus” creciendo en diferentes medios de cultivo y ya veis cómo cambia dependiendo del sustrato �� Los hongos son súper sorprendentes 🤩

I do have some time for the ‘it’s too inhospitable for trees in the Northwest Highlands' theory. But also, here's a box canyon with oak, pine, birch, willow, aspen and holly, in what just happens to be the only inaccessible place for herbivores on a 10km walk 1/4

The new @cellhostmicrobe Special Issue presents a series of reviews & primary research articles to examine how microbial communities & their dynamics impact the host and other members of the microbial community. Take a look. https://t.co/M09ePnnqRg

Great to see @Sondreus's banana index in print, and the utmost respect to @_rospearce for pulling it all together so speedily
