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/s43247-0…
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.
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…
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.
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. @BernierLabEPFLactu.epfl.ch/news/new-recomm…
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!
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.
