A team led by Professor Ludmilla Aristilde found that two versions of one enzyme act as “traffic controllers” for carbon in bacteria — a discovery that could help engineers turn waste like plant matter or plastics into useful chemicals and fuels. spr.ly/601475fl6

@AristildeLab joins Nanoscape to discuss how microbes and minerals work together to recycle waste, nutrients, and even plastics. Hear how her nanoscale discoveries are helping shape the future of sustainability. Listen at iinano.org/podcast or on your favorite platform.

















Professor Ludmilla Aristilde has discovered a new pathway to convert phosphorus from its organic to its inorganic form, which could improve agricultural sustainability and food security as phosphorus supplies dwindle. spr.ly/6011LIXHT



Today I’m joining 30+ colleagues in taking an unusual step: calling for a halt to a line of research I was excited about, the long-term effort to build “mirror life”. We’re sharing our findings in a @ScienceMagazine paper: science.org/doi/10.1126/sc… 1/6
