As someone who usually deals with single cells or individuals, it's humbling to be reminded of the sheer complexity of the communities that support microbial life and species co-existence. Thanks @osslab et al for bringing us together! #nocellisanisland
Exciting talk by Kirsty Wan @micromotility @NewtonInstitute Cambridge at the Microbial communities workshop on "Microscale motility: challenges, opportunities, ecological considerations"

Citation Etiquette: 🤓 Not sure who needs to hear this but please try harder to cite historic literature or to hunt down the original paper detailing the discovery, not just that recent Nature paper that everybody else cites... Citing old papers won't diminish your own work...!

We know little about the evolution of the metabolic network, partially, because its basic structure was imprinted a very long time ago. Here some thoughts about the key factors that might have been at play doi.org/10.1016/j.coisb.2021…

A busy week @smb2021 topped off with a poster prize! Thanks to the organisers and selection committee @smbpdee looking forward to meeting again next year #SMB2021
We've been long interested in bacterial motility and in minicells, and now we are happy to introduce motile minicells: swimming and chemotactic DNA-free vesicles pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.1021…
