The cool thing, Liz, is my first semester biology students are looking for microbes that make antibiotics from mosses, lichen, and the soil. I call them (antibiotic producing buddies). It's part of the program.

'Osborne et al. present new methods and software, allowing for more comprehensive analysis of tree root distribution and plant species' interactions with nutrient patches, other plants, and soil microbes.'

Low quality GIF I generated months ago because I can’t get this out of my head when people describe microbes as cosmopolitan & this seems a good excuse to share it 😂 https://t.co/aCMxVRlzQX

Sprinkling tons of you tinies into the carpet

Finding satisfaction in the fact that with every step I take on it, I'll be squishing sooooo many of you~

Turning hundreds, even thousands of you microbes into stickers against my bare soles if you're not buried in carpet fibers~

Meet some of the microbes that will be in my major project film: The Green Hydra and Stentor coeruleus.

I've had a lot of fun making them look like jelly and trying to figure out their forms.

day 19-the ocean (just like everything else on earth) is full of microbes.Within the ocean they find their sweet spot & thrive but some like to move around. The deeper unclear regions hold many unknowns which we are able to study with new technology.

14. Community

When I think about community, similarly to , I do not only think about microbes.

I am so grateful to all the amazing persons I met via science, from my labmates to all the friends from the scicomm and sciart communities that I met online. https://t.co/dP1qGFW6yV

Hi ! Here is my contribution to and "Shapes of microbes" made with watercolours and ink.

One of my hobbies is drawing cartoons about microbes, and I always aim to communicate science through art and humor. Here, two bacteria wonder about their own existence, and also decorate a tree for the season.

Our study on ecological change in the leaf microbiome is out in ! https://t.co/DdtzX5iOvo

Plant leaves contain an ecosystem of microbes that can help or hurt their host. Fungi are essential, but it's tough to study their changes in the wild.
