🔍 On the hunt for cable bacteria again! 🔍
Last week, most of the Ecology team at CEM: Mie, Lea, Ugo, @larspeternielsen.bsky.social & Andreas had a great day in the field at Norsminde Fjord and Følle Vig, exploring the population dynamic and activity of cable bacteria along our local coasts🔬🌿🌊

Last week, Prof. @larspeternielsen.bsky.social was the opening speaker at the 20th Congress of the Argentinian Microbiological Society in Puerto Madryn, Patagonia🌎
Exciting to see cable bacteria joining electromicrobiology research in Argentina🔬👏We look forward to future collaborations with SAMIGE.

Dissemination Artwork: Cross Section at Junction. Bringing together art and research is incredibly rewarding.
We are privileged to have this beautiful piece on display. Created by Matilda Tjelldén, the work is inspired by our research - and in turn, we are deeply inspired by Matilda's art.

Huge congratulations Marta.
What a moving story! 😊

Marta Lidia Sudo @martasu.bsky.social · Feb 18

As a science-loving girl growing up in Poland, Maria Skłodowska-Curie was my role model, so much so that I once portrayed her in a school play! 😅 Now, 15 years later, receiving a positive result on my #MSCA application feels surreal. A full-circle moment I never imagined back then!
