Carmen Buchrieser @cbuch.bsky.social from @pasteur.fr FEMS-Lwoff Awardee 2025 ✨ @femsmicro.bsky.social discusses her career, her inspiring biology teacher, the importance of society journals, challenges she’s faced & so much more! Listen to her Microbes & Us 👇 open.spotify.com/episode/1REa...

The microbes made the life-friendly climate of Earth what it is, and their biomass and billions-years adaptations are key to climate moderation #ClimateChange

Why we should publish in community journals: Self control of the publication process by the community. Support of our learned societies and federations. Income flows back to the community instead of shareholders' accounts.

The recording of the #FEMSMicrobiolEcol webinar on Microbial Impacts of #ClimateChange is now available to stream: https://youtu.be/uodGS9qgtVU?si=69J0VZontOtnqYwX #MicroSky #Microbiology #Ecology

We are delighted to announce the appointment of Clare Taylor, Senior Lecturer in Medical Microbiology at Edinburgh Napier University, as the new Editor-in-Chief of #FEMSMicrobiololLett, effective 1 January 2025.
