Finally, it's out! Very proud of this article. Contains important implications on #Biogeography of marine #microbes. In the end, distribution of microbes in the oceans is much more deterministic than previously thought. Enjoy: nature.com/articles/s4146…

The ecological success (prevalence and abundance) of freshwater microorganisms is mediated by streamlining and biotic interactions by @alejandrorgijon @pachecologist @FelixMilke @_lrr_ and more ... ... including 80,561 genomes and a curated dataset of 636 freshwater metagenomes

Out today in @NatureBiotech! PhD students & postdocs: there's a trick – overlooked and underused – for having new ideas in the creative process. Talk science 1 on 1 with a science buddy that you trust and think of it as an improvisation. nature.com/articles/s4158…… @MartinJLercher

👉Our latest paper is out ❗️ Here, we investigate how microbial association networks change over ocean depths and across locations in the tropical and subtropical global ocean and Med Sea. @EMM_Barcelona @ICMCSIC #malaspina

Nicht verpassen: Oldenburger #ScienceSlam am 29.11. ab 19 Uhr in der Aula der Uni #Oldenburg! 🎤 Als Slammer diesmal mit dabei: ICBM-Alumni Dominik Antoni, jetzt @AWI_de tätig. Sein Slam-Beitrag "Versauerter Ozean, verbitterter Wissenschaftler" Mehr: uol.de/scienceslam

‘Oceans are hugely complex’: modelling marine microbes is key to climate forecasts - by @altagliabue nature.com/articles/d4158…

Great article by Dennis Tebbe, @HSchaeferLab et al. about the significance of DMSO in salt marshes! Important implications for the #climate relevance of this unique biome! @ICBM_uol @UniOldenburg doi.org/10.1038/s41396…

This is *amazing* - using FISH to see viruses infecting uncultivated Archaea - great work by @IndraMon3, @AlexJProbst et al. 👏 nature.com/articles/s4139…

Now also as featured article on @NatureComms: nature.com/collections/ja… Happy to see such a large interest in it!

Our paper debunking the 2020 cancer microbiome results is now published, in @mbiojournal. We'll see if @nature (or the authors) will retract these deeply flawed results. h/t @ProfBootyPhD @EricTopol journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/mb…

Just published in Nat Comm -> nature.com/articles/s4146… We try to characterise from first principles plankton dynamics inside a water patch in the ocean. Highlights below (1/4)

Psychologists have posited hundreds of cognitive biases over the years. A fascinating new paper argues that they all boil down to one of a handful of fundamental beliefs coupled with confirmation bias. doi.org/10.1177/174569…

Really cool story on where #bacteria colonise #diatoms - using some fancy #microscopy work! Definitely worth reading: doi.org/10.1111/1462-2…

@GassenLisa @ZfMarS_ICBM @ICBM_uol @UniOldenburg @VolkswagenSt @ThomasBadewien Great, I love the name of the sensor chain! I hope @JMeyerjurgens treats #Bernd well 😉 Next step: equip #Bernd with autosamplers!!!

How hard is it to do science in a language that’s not your first language? We quantified the severity of #languagebarriers for non-native English speakers when reading/publishing papers and attending/presenting at international conferences. doi.org/10.1371/journa… 1/9

Congratulations to @gossmann_isabel and her co-authors on their new publication about #occurence and #backtracking of #microplastics in northern Atlantic air published in @NatureComms yesterday! 🥳📚 @ICBM_uol @UniOldenburg @JPIOceansFACTS nature.com/articles/s4146…

For all those dinoflagellate enthusiasts out there - check out this beautiful work from Kalvelage and colleagues: journals.asm.org/doi/full/10.11…
