A postdoctoral research position is available in the group of Prof. Dr. Kirsten Jung at Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München, Germany (www.bio.lmu.de/en/research/...)

A study in Nature Communications determines the maximum display resolution that the human eye can discriminate. The limit was determined for achromatic and chromatic vision, for both the fovea and periphery. go.nature.com/3L4zl5x 🧪

Day 22, GOAT. The most iconic (if not the greatest phage of all time) in terms of looks are myovirus like phages. They look like a lunar lander and are instantly recognisable as a virus. #Drawtober #SciArt #PhageSky

How do microbes survive the most extreme environments on Earth and what does that tell us about life beyond our planet? #FEMSMicrobes is welcoming papers on the microbiology of extreme environments and their links to astrobiology. 🦠 🌌 Submit before 31st December 2025: buff.ly/frV0k6l

In Milano for an intense microbiology week 🦠🧫🧬 for the #FEMS2025 conference organized by @femsmicro.org - I'll have the honour to chair a #phage session this afternoon 😍 (check out the cool talks we have) and to present my new project from Royal Danish Academy on Thursday 🪦🏛️🖼️

Ancient DNA extracted from a sediment core from a high-altitude Pyrenean lake in Spain shows that fish may have been added to the lake by humans as early as the 7th century CE, according to a study in Nature Communications. go.nature.com/4i90I9h 🏺 🧪

Feel like this paper slipped under the radar on ‘the other platform’ so giving it another airing here. Phage can significantly remodel the bacteriome in faecal samples - yet another confounder 🙄 www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

We have 2 fully funded PhD studentships available through the new Yorkshire Biosciences DTP (starting Oct 25) - please share! Both projects are focussed on #phage that infect #Cdifficile
