📣 New PhD student position opening in my lab! Soils are full of microbes, but how many are active? Surprisingly, we still lack reliable methods to answer this. If you are interested in microbial dormancy and are fascinated by the Alps and glacier forefields, contact me. 🏔️ 🦠 💤 🧬 🎓

If you do #qPCR on soils you might be interested in this paper led by @aoifeduff.bsky.social @femsmicro.org which shows the effect of mastermix, sample type, platform and gene target on the inhibition, precision and accuracy of quantification academic.oup.com/femsec/artic...

Counting soil microbial communities: the impact of qPCR platform and mastermix on accuracy and precision

qPCR is used to measure soil microorganisms but can be affected by inhibitors, change in mastermix, and platform. This study measured precision and accurac

So-called objective metrics in academia disadvantage women. Letters of reference for women tend to have less stand-out adjectives. Women's papers are cited less, their grants are smaller on avg & their papers have a harder time getting past reviewers. www.livescience.com/human-behavi...

"What is the hard evidence, beyond anecdote and suspicion, that unconscious bias impacts on women's careers? Increasing numbers of studies show, in many different guises, just how potent such bias can...
