And, if you would prefer to HEAR the sourdough data, artist Jude Casseday has produced an incredible album of soundscapes based on the data and findings! #sciart

Very excited our sourdough microbiome paper is out in @eLife today! elifesciences.org/articles/6…
Humans have relied on sourdough starter microbial communities to make bread for thousands of years, but only a small fraction of global sourdough biodiversity has been characterized.

If you are wondering how to help, amplify voices especially the untold stories but better yet DONATE to @Blklivesmatter, a local bail fund, @BBFounders, @Code2040, or @projectinclude. We have made donations to the @NAACP and @BlackGirlsCode. #BlackLivesMatter

"Women would often be photographed working in machine rooms and in laboratories, but when it came time to write up the results of that work...or even caption the photographs, their identities were usually not seen as very important."

Grateful for accessible @DOEKBase tools for teaching undergrad basics of bacterial genomics. Especially useful right now for online microbiology labs. Happy to share our simple sourdough bacterial genomics activity with anyone interested! Reach out to me or @landisea

Can’t wait to see these pollinator gardens @TuftsUniversity mature over the years. Thanks to all the people behind #PollinateTufts for starting these on-campus native gardens.

Our second @TuftsUniversity #pollinator garden has been planted right outside @TischLibrary! If you’re around campus, make the most of this last day of #PollinatorWeek and check it out. Let us know if you see anything flying around! #PollinateTufts

"Culture: the arts & other manifestations of human intellectual achievement regarded collectively"-Dictionary.com. Simply by naming a group of cultivated microorganisms as a culture we gave it a title that denoted our great respect for the collective power of these cells

Hey Folks, We are beginning a project to survey arthropods in homes around the world (through iNaturalist). Give it a go. Do you have species in your home we haven’t yet seen in other homes? inaturalist.org/projects/nev…

It’s an extra special treat that some of the most powerful chemicals microbes produce (antibiotics, anticancer meds,& antioxidants) just happen to also be beautiful to the eyes as well as the brain. Their pigments range from bubblegum pink to deep violet. ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/article…

Check out our new guide to sourdough yeasts! @landisea compiled lots of useful info on lesser-known yeasts in sourdough starters. If you have any info to add, please let us know! microbialfoods.org/yeast-pro…

When @landisea placed diluted sourdough starter on a petri dish, the #yeast colonies didn't disappoint. The #Sourdough Project, made possible through #citizenscience, has results: robdunnlab.com/projects/sour… ...and we have so much more to learn. Stay tuned.

A year ago, Ryan said a #MuslimBan is “not what this country stands for.” bit.ly/2kgU9IO Tell @SpeakerRyan you demand he speak up.
