Check out these wonderful paintings(1m x1m, 25 plates), created by young Cuencan artists with bioluminescent bacteria, isolated from marine animals in the Ecuadorian cost. So many artistic possibilities...!

Created with really cheap plates (which can be re-used several times, like we did in these works)

Proud and excited to announce our Fifth Workshop on Microbial Art!!! A wonderful (and creative) way to dialog with our young students about the wonders of the microbial world. We aim at increasing the Microbial Literacy of our society, by very small steps... #MicrobeArt #IMiLi

Thermophiles don’t just survive heat, they thrive in it. 🔥
They provide heat-stable enzymes, insights into early Earth, and tools for biotech.
Our new thematic issue in #FEMSMicrobiolEcol captures how diverse this field is. Explore the collection👉 buff.ly/kD8fmOL

Thrilled (and proud!) to see this work published in @MicrobialBiote1 A great THANK to my co-authors. I would like to mention the impulse received from my friend @solimanlopez, with whom I discovered how Art can be crucial for scientific outreach.

In a world of climate challenges and misinformation, art science can change how we see the world. Using extremophiles as muses, Yarzabal et al show how creativity and research inspire fresh ways of understanding our planet. Read MBT doi.org/10.1111/1751-7915.70…

Producing enough food to feed more than 8 billion people is challenging. However, microbes offer powerful solutions in the form of biofertilizers and biochar, ultimately promoting crop health and boosting global food security and resilience. asm.social/2E7 #WorldFoodDay

Microbes aren’t just “bad guys”—they sustain life and help make food, medicines, biofuels & more. Highlighting positive roles of microbes in movies can fight germophobia and inspire “positive microbiology". Get inspired by Sanchez-Angulo in MBT. doi.org/10.1111/1751-7915.70…

Microbes have the potential to extend the shelf life of foods, make them more nutritious, and reduce their carbon footprint. But microbiologists must champion the research that will underpin the technological advances, argues a @NatureMicrobiol editorial. rdcu.be/eGpWl
