Check out poster B286 #microbio2025 by @hannahvpye.bsky.social who is presenting the BronchoPhage study in which we are developing a phage-based therapy for bronchiectasis.
Hannah also gave a great flash talk!

Alice Nisbet stood beside her scientific poster on typhoidal Salmonella in England and Wales over the past 20 years.
After being quiet for a while-I'm back on @bsky.app! 🎉 To kick-start my return, today I'll be presenting my work with @ukhsa.bsky.social on #typhoidal #Salmonella at #MicroBio25! Pop by poster 301 for exciting insights into enteric fever, including some innovative analysis on bacterial carriers! 🦠

A.Santhos inserts a slide into the foldscope. He is a former student who lives in the neigbourhood and keeps in touch with the students of his alma mater, often taking them for nature walks to examine the world around them through the foldscope. Viraj Nayer for NPR

Ramana Rajeesh Kumar, 11, Meenakshi, 8, and Magathi Yazhini, 9, with their Foldscopes. Ramana has been fascinated with bugs for a while. "They look even cooler under the Foldscope," he says. "Especially their eyes and hairy feet!" Viraj Nayer for NPR
My favorite NPR story blog - “Goats and Soda” sent a writer and photographer to a rural school in India; an early adopter of Foldscope. A wonderful photo story of kids “reading nature”. In this current challenging climate - the kids show us the way with joy and wonder.

I'm very happy to report that Matt Schechter's PhD work is now online as a pre-print:
"Ribosomal protein phylogeography offers quantitative insights into the efficacy of genome-resolved surveys of microbial communities", www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
Here's a little 🧵 about it.
If you have been using #anvio to analyze your microbial pangenomes, we have a new program for you to calculate rarefaction curves or Heaps' Law fit for your gene clusters:

Sorry it took this long :/ But at least t will run on any existing anvi'o pangenome :)
It was a great and long first day at IBSE symposium today. That's a great well received talk by @evelienadri.bsky.social today making my poster session so easy! I had a great time learning about the microbiome of various ecosystem from rhizosphere to Ocean! Gearing up for flash talk tomorrow!
