Very excited our sourdough microbiome paper is out in @eLife today! elifesciences.org/articles/61644 Humans have relied on sourdough starter microbial communities to make bread for thousands of years, but only a small fraction of global sourdough biodiversity has been characterized.

It was an honor to serve as advisor on this gorgeous microbiology-inspired installation by the artist Barbara Schroeder. I love how she used images of fungal endophytes in plants to create this large-scale "Saprobionte." For more about the exhibit: barbaraschroeder.com/exposition-enf… #sciart

"Women would often be photographed working in machine rooms and in laboratories, but when it came time to write up the results of that work...or even caption the photographs, their identities were usually not seen as very important." ed.gr/cf1fo

As a sometimes professional speaker, I live by the advice of @simonsinek-find your cheerleaders in the audience-those w/the smiling faces who motivate you to perform. Digital talks remove this support. What strategies do you use to make your teaching/talks as strong as possible?

Grateful for accessible @DOEKBase tools for teaching undergrad basics of bacterial genomics. Especially useful right now for online microbiology labs. Happy to share our simple sourdough bacterial genomics activity with anyone interested! Reach out to me or @landisea

Can’t wait to see these pollinator gardens @TuftsUniversity mature over the years. Thanks to all the people behind #PollinateTufts for starting these on-campus native gardens.
Tufts Pollinator Initiative@PollinateTufts

Our second @TuftsUniversity #pollinator garden has been planted right outside @TischLibrary! If you’re around campus, make the most of this last day of #PollinatorWeek and check it out. Let us know if you see anything flying around! #PollinateTufts

@osilander Really excited about your cool sourdough project! @am_oliverio analyzed the amplicon and metagenomic data, may be able to better answer your questions about sequencing.

@landisea great talk, we're doing some work on the microbiome of rewena bread (traditional Māori sourdough). Two Qs: will you do metagenomics, and how do you isolate your DNA?

"Culture: the arts & other manifestations of human intellectual achievement regarded collectively"-Dictionary.com. Simply by naming a group of cultivated microorganisms as a culture we gave it a title that denoted our great respect for the collective power of these cells

It’s an extra special treat that some of the most powerful chemicals microbes produce (antibiotics, anticancer meds,& antioxidants) just happen to also be beautiful to the eyes as well as the brain. Their pigments range from bubblegum pink to deep violet. ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/P…
