Trace metals availability controls terminal electron acceptor utilization in Escherichia coli
Trace metals play an essential role in the metabolism of all living organisms and many metal-containing enzymes contribute to key physiological and ecological processes such as aerobic and anaerobic r...

We are collecting data on "periods of things not working" in the lab through a (very very short) poll, can you please complete it and share it?

Periods of unreliable results in the lab
This form collects anonymous data regarding periods of "nothing is growing", "my bug is misbehaving" and "things are not working as they should" that might periodically happen in labs. Thank you for y...

Ok, let's talk about it. Everyone complains that in Italy there are no opportunities for young researchers. Then you open a 2y position well paid (by Italian standards), funded by an ERC and you barely get any application? Really?!? #AcademicChatter
