Great talk on desert microbes and their phages by Thulani Makhalanyane for yesterday. Getting used to sketching while listening to talks so I don't get distracted (any mention of phages stops that!). https://t.co/Pi9178pZXs

CHEF à la bacteria!Microbes are one of the most hardworking chefs out there.Thanks to them we have kimchi, idli, kombucha, yoghurt, tempeh and much more.These are made using enzymes produced by bacteria that modify complex compounds giving flavor & texture.#inktober2020

So, we have this project for microbio where we have to post everyday about anything related to microbes. Today was my turn and I have no pic for my post so I just decided to draw the COVID-19 virus real quick.

Anyway, stay safe y'all! Don't forget to wash your hands!
