🗺️ Lost in the mud? Why evolve your own magnetic sense when you can hire micro-roommates?🤝🧲 Mitali Chitnis & Leon Kaub uncovered a wild 3-way partnership: A single-celled ciliate carrying magnetotactic bacteria & methane-producing archaea! 📄@pnas.org: www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/... #Microbiology

Why do Earth and Mercury both have magnetic fields despite their vastly different histories?🌍🌑 Join our #DeepDyn online seminar with Nicola Tosi @dlr-de.bsky.social to explore the divergent paths of these two "end-member" planets! 📅 Mon May 18 14:00 CET 👇Register here: www.geo.lmu.de/deepdyn/en/l...

Mud, Mutants & Magnetospirillum: Our Spring School in #Bayreuth was a blast for everyone, from high schoolers to professors! 🧲✨🧬 We dug through sediment and tracked bacterial U-turns ↪️. 👉 Check out the full recap here: www.geo.lmu.de/deepdyn/en/l... #Microbiology #Zoomies #magnetotactic #lab 🧪🔬

Magnetomineralogical Spring School Day 2 🧲: From animal navigation 🐦🦋 to magnetofossils 🦴◼️◼️◼️ & Earth’s field impacts 🌍. Highlight: the lab for automated bacteria tracking 🤖🔬🦠. We sampled our pond mud and found some cocci 🧪⚪. ​Watch these MTB pull a perfect U-turn! 🧲🔄🦠 #Geoscience​ #Microbiology #MTB

Magnetomineralogical Spring School Day 1: After some great #microbiology talks, we hit the local ponds 🦠 for sampling. 🔬Check out these Magnetospirillum zoomies! We had a blast playing "Wildtype or Mutant?"🧫 trying to guess who’s who 🕵️‍♂️🧲 #MagnetotacticBacteria #Geoscience #ScienceQuest #ScienceIsFun

Science at the peak! 🏔️ Our #DEEPDYN early career researchers met at the Schneefernerhaus on Mount #Zugspitze. Three days of interdisciplinary exchange, new synergies, and high-altitude research. ☁️🔬 #EarthScience #STEM #Research #Germany @lmugeoumwelt.bsky.social www.geo.lmu.de/deepdyn/en/l...

Summit Meeting on Zugspitze: DEEPDYN ECS Researchers Connect

DEEPDYN ECS researchers gathered at the Schneefernerhaus research station for three days of cross-disciplinary collaboration on Germany’s highest peak.
