I wrote a review/perspective on the search for principles of microbial ecology across scales, with a focus on (community) metabolism. I hope it can be a useful primer for people interested in microbial communities from a more quantitative perspective. academic.oup.com/icb/advance…

On a personal note, Cologne was great fun but I’m also happy to be back in the Netherlands. I am aware academia often requires difficult tradeoffs, and I feel incredibly grateful and lucky to have landed such a dream job and simultaneously live close-by family and many friends.
