🦠 In need of some weekend reading? Check out the newest GSB4 ECR series blog by Dr. Alejandro Berlinches de Gea! 🎉
He revisits the Biodiversity-Ecosystem Functioning concept, and highlights the role of soil protists in shaping soil microbiomes.

🚨 I'm in the process of writing a Marie Skłodowska-Curie Postdoctoral Fellowship proposal!
If you have tips, experiences, or (even better!) example proposals you're willing to share—I'd be incredibly grateful. 🙏

Yet another reminder that RNA levels are not necessarily predictive of growth rate in mixed microbial communities (from this paper: www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...)
First post in this social network! 🌐
Just to introduce myself, I am a postdoc at Wageningen University, focusing on microbial ecology (focus on protist) and how microbial diversity affects plant performance 🦠🪴. I will post some updates about my career here, hope to engage with you all 😎
