New paper highlights a green-diet-derived sulfur compound as a potential prebiotic The effects of individual dietary compounds on the gut microbiome and human health remain poorly understood. A new study reveals that a sulfosugar derived from green plants and algae is not metabolize...

Leafy greens may do more than nourish you! A new study by #CeMESS researchers @julkras.bsky.social and @loyteam.bsky.social shows that sulfoquinovose is metabolized by key gut microbes into hydrogen sulfide, revealing intriguing prebiotic potential.

Exciting news #2! CoE Key Researcher Dagmar Woebken (@cemess.bsky.social, @univie.ac.at) receives an ERC Advanced Grant to explore how desert microbes thrive on non-rainwater (dew, water vapor).

I really enjoy how multidisciplinary approaches are bringing us closer to mechanistic understanding of plant growth promotion traits.
Just heard a talk by prof. Yan Jin on the physics of how Bacillus subtilis changes salt evaporation and precipitation at #rhizosphere6.

If you'd like to see how we link #PlanMicrobeInteraction research from #lab to #field, and from individual 🌱🦠 in controlled systems, to the field- where we πŸ‘€ at #roots, full #microbiomes, and #soil in the #field, stop by poster 311 today. #Rhizosphere6 πŸ§ͺ #PlantScience #SoilHealth

My @cemess.bsky.social colleague @loutsi.bsky.social gave a great talk on root traits in a young forest system so now I finally know what she did in Costa Rica! #rhizosphere6

I really enjoyed Doris Vetterleinβ€˜s talk at the #rhizosphere6 on the legacy of rhizosphere. An important and often overlooked topic on what stays in the soil after the roots!

Very happy to be in wonderful Edinburgh presenting a poster at the #rhizosphere6 conference. If youβ€˜re around, come over to poster session today (Tuesday) to hear about reduced microbial consortia and root growth under salinity stress :)

Ab 2027 soll der #Steinitzsteg für Fuß- und Radverkehr 5 Jahre lang gesperrt werden. Dagegen haben wir protestiert!

Liebe @spoewien.bsky.social & @neos.eu, helft @wien.gv.at #Klimamusterstadt zu werden und haltet eine Spur fΓΌr aktive MobilitΓ€t offen!

Next: #HolidayBikeRide 4.7. – save the date!

Ich war dabei und mΓΆchte mich bei allen fΓΌr die tolle Stimmung und die tolle Musik bedanken! Unser Favorit: das Radfahrer-DJ-Duo! Ihr macht einen tollen Job, eure Bike-Demos sind nicht nur (sehr, dringend!) wichtig, sondern machen auch Spaß! Weiter so! πŸ‘πŸ˜€

And a throwback to my first ever twitter post, which was perhaps a bigger hit than anything else I wrote and even got me retweeted πŸ˜…

Hello Bluesky!
When I exited twitter a few years ago, it was mostly because I found the twitter-to-X takeover sad and its owner childish. Now I can also add "fascist". Anyways, happy to be here and looking forward to interesting reads!
