MEEHubs doesn't stop when the talks stop: from a mouth-watering spread in Morelia to a bonfire in Irvine to an Apero in Zurich, we've got your social calendar covered during the conference #MEEHubs2026 #MEEHubs26

Hey Montreal, the Zurich hub is trying to out-blue you! #MEEHubs2026 #MEEHubs26

MEEhubs@meehubs.bsky.social · 2w ago

That is one of the blue-est rooms we have ever seen! In fact, it's looking pretty MEEHubs blue to us! 🩵 #MEEHubs26 #MEEHubs2026

MEEHubs or MEEPubs? Our cross-hub pub quiz pitted hubs against each other in a thrilling battle. Congrats to "alan", "Tom" and "swayam" for winning free registration to a local hub at the next MEEHubs! #MEEHubs26 #MEEHubs2026

You know it’s @meehubs.bsky.social if one hub has beer while another has breakfast. The Zürich hub is concluding a fantastic first day of #MEEHubs26 - can’t wait to rewatch what we’ll be missing out on tonight and excited for two more days of science and fun across hubs 🙌🏼🚀

3 days of Microbial Ecology and Evolution, starting tomorrow! 🤩 #MEEHubs2026 meehubsmorelia2026.org Of you' re attending from another hub, check our online poster on multiomics to elucidate the effects of #Phythophthora on the 🥑 #microbiome and #metabolome (no. 171). #microsky

🚨The program for MEEHubs2026 is now online, as is more detailed information about the hubs! Check it out at meehubs.org and register‼️ Less than a month before the conference kicks off! 🦠

So happy to see this out 🎉 it all started with a discussion group of ECR brought together by the NCCR Microbiomes and cumulated in this primer on microbial community ecology. This was such a fun group project, where I learned a lot about how cool both microbial and human communities are 🤩

Oliver Meacock@olimeacock.bsky.social · 3mo ago

Delighted to see this out in its final form! doi.org/10.1093/isme... We established a discussion group focussed on the history of community ecology and how it informs our understanding of microbiota. This review distils those discussions to provide a guide for microbiologists entering the field

Just a few days left‼️ Abstract submission deadline for MEEHubs2026 is April 19! Come present at one of the hubs August 3-5, 2026✨ Links and more info here: meehubs.org

REMINDER - Abstract submission deadline for MEEHubs2026 is April 19! Get you abstract in and present at one of the hubs August 3-5, 2026✨You'll be in great company! We have a fantastic lineup of speakers‼️ Links and more info here: meehubs.org

Note it in your calendars! Aug 3-5, 2026. Excited to bring back MEEHubs to a hub near you (Switzerland, USA, Canada, Mexico, UK, Ukraine, or virtual only)‼️

We’re back! ✨ The next #MeeHubs26 is coming with 7 hubs across the globe and incredible lineups at each. Can’t wait to share more soon! meehubs.org

MEEHubs2026 registration and abstract submission is now online! 🚨🦠✨ Join us Aug 3 - 5, 2026 at one of the 7 hubs or online. We are incredibly excited about our lineup of speakers, and hope that you submit an abstract to contribute too! More information and registration links at: meehubs.org

PopDyn is on Winter break. We are working on the list of speakers for the 2025 sites.google.com/view/popdyn/ I take the occasion to share the Alma Dal Co School on Collective Behaviour (Venice 29/09-4/10 2025) with an amazing line up of speakers in memory of Alma Dal Co. almadalcoschool.github.io

Scientists, academics, researchers: We’re excited to share that @altmetric.com is now tracking mentions of your research on Bluesky! 🧪

Altmetric@altmetric.com · 2y ago

There are already many articles for which there is more attention on Bluesky than on other comparable micro-blogging sites, meaning the academic community and the general public have clearly adopted Bluesky as one of its core places to disseminate and discuss new research. A Place of Joy.

So proud to be part of such an amazing group of people and to be able to receive support and mentorship from two literally award-winning, outstanding leaders 🤩

Microbial Systems Ecology Lab@micsysecolab.bsky.social · 2y ago

We are so thrilled that Martin and Olga have won the Art of Leadership (ALEA) award - for being incredible group leaders who give us independence, support, trust, and ultimately prioritise our wellbeing above all else. We are so grateful to be co-led by them!

My friend & colleague @micsysecolab.bsky.social Matthias has written this extremely insightful and fascinating perspective on bacterial collective metabolism, out now in @naturemicrobiol.bsky.social. So happy to see this out & super excited for proteome allocation! www.nature.com/articles/s41...

A framework for understanding collective microbiome metabolism - Nature Microbiology

This Perspective explores why microbiome members perform partial metabolism of substrates and suggests that proteome efficiency is a driver of collective microbiome metabolism.

Check out our new paper, led by Astrid Stubbusch and @nonresidentdesi.bsky.social on bacterial degradation-dispersal cycles, out in @elife.bsky.social!

Glen Dsouza@nonresidentdesi.bsky.social · 2y ago

New work out in @eLife! Possibly the last one in our series on bacterial aggregation behaviours on polysaccharides. We knew cells were engaging in collective behaviours. But how do they know when to leave and why? We provide potential answers in this work elifesciences.org/articles/93855

Grateful for the opportunity to share my enthusiasm and thoughts on microbial ecology and bacterial communities in Cell Systems! What an exciting time to contribute to this fascinating field and to adress the „macro in the micro“. www.cell.com/cell-systems...

How can concepts from ecology enable insights about cellular communities?

Historically, microbiology has been markedly concerned with pathogens and their modes of action. Upon Koch’s revolutionary finding that microorganisms can be causal of disease, understandably, there w...
