The newest paper by Ashley Brown: exciting experiment showing the nuclear field shift during microbial uranium reduction. A very nice collaboration with Stefan Weyer @UniHannover and Minori Abe @HU_Research provided by an @ERC_Research grant.

Hot off the press, Ashley Brown's paper on the role of microbial electron flux on uranium isotope fractionation. Very cool collaboration with Stefan Weyer @UniHannover and Minori Abe @HiroshimaUnivEn. nature.com/articles/s4324…

@_Emma_Bell @KTHuniversity @linneuni @jgi @scilifelab @doubleanders @JPinhassi @hannafarnelid Congratulations! This is very exciting!

Excited for our team at @KTHuniversity and @linneuni to work with the @jgi to sequence #microbes and #viruses! With their #genomes we'll explore microbe-virus interactions in coastal waters. @scilifelab @doubleanders @JPinhassi @hannafarnelid

It was fun to meet up with former and current members of the Environmental Microbiology Lab at EPFL while attending Goldschmidt 2023 @goldschmidt2023. Great to see generations of scientists contributing to solving problems and advancing fundamental science.

Congratulations to @MargauxMolinas for her new paper in @EnvSciTech on the mechanism of biological reduction uranium-dpaea. A great collaboration with @MazzantiLab. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

I gave my farewell lecture on "Actionable Research for the Sustainable Development Goals" @ETH_en on Tuesday. The video is online at: video.ethz.ch/speakers/lectu…

A happy team after the final well was drilled. Thanks to the drillers for a job well done!

The #EML team is hard at work, sampling in the Mekong Delta in #Vietnam! We're happy with the progress and all wells have been drilled now!

@BorchLab @CSUAgSci @csu_chemistry @SSSA_soils Congratulations!! This is well deserved!

Thanks to all my mentors, collaborators and especially students for supporting my professional career and more importantly the great education and environmental research that are aiming at making the world a better place. @CSUAgSci @csu_chemistry @SSSA_soils

Last but not least! Another former EML member, Karen Viacava will be presenting at #ISME18 on Friday about the isolation of an elusive arsenic-methylating soil bacterium using meta-omics. Her talk will be held in the Soil Microbial Ecology session at 15:15 (1ABC garden floor).

More from our lab today in #ISME18, later in the afternoon there will be a poster by Karin Meibom on her latest work about the Biochemical pathway of bile acid dehydroxylation by a gut microbe (PS18.570). Come and say Hi!

#ISME18 continues! Today our former EML member @_Emma_Bell will be presenting at 11:30 in the Deep Subsurface Microbial Ecology session (3ABC garden floor). The talk will be about Sulfur-cycling microbial communities in groundwater from deep crystalline bedrock fractures.

The #ISME18 conference is ongoing this week! Come and check out our work on the poster sessions of Tuesday (@EduardVico ) and Thursday (Karin Meibom)!

All smiles and smooth sailing down the Aare river last week for the summer lab outing!

A report on the status of women faculty at EPFL outlines common challenges faced by women professors, and more importantly, recommendations on how to move forward. @BernierLabEPFL actu.epfl.ch/news/new-recom…

Last Wednesday we celebrated the #EML becoming 15 years old!! The team and previous members that could make it got together for a nice party. On to the next milestone now!

We are proud to announce our new partnership with @BernierLabEPFL and @ETH_en to contribute to the @MtTerriProject. We are very excited to be part of this interesting and important project actu.epfl.ch/news/lms-epfl-… @EPFL_en

Congrats to @NielsBurzan and everyone involved in our latest publication: Growth and persistence of an aerobic microbial community in Wyoming bentonite MX-80 despite anoxic in-situ conditions. As usual, more info in our page: actu.epfl.ch/news/new-artic…

And it is out! Link here for the full open access publication: nature.com/articles/s4139…

New preprint available! Congratulations to Karen Viacava and all the authors for their recently accepted paper; Meta-omics-aided isolation of an elusive anaerobic arsenic-methylating soil bacterium. More info and links in our page actu.epfl.ch/news/new-prepr…
