There are some incredible ecosystems around the world.
Do you know about the Subglacial lakes?
(global-ecosystems.org/explor…)
They are not your regular kind of lake... they are under tons of ice!
Bacteria and other microbes are the only forms of life, but there is a surprising diversity of them. For people like me, used to terrestrial ecosystems full of green plants, insects, and vertebrates, it is surprising how many ecosystems are dominated by microbiota.🦠🤘🏽

Bohemian rhapsody for postdocs:
Is this a real job?
Or more like a PhD?
Caught in short contracts
No chance of stability
Open your eyes
Look up to PIs and see
I'm just a postdoc
I get no sympathy
Because I'm easy come, easy go
Stress is high
Pay is low
