Elegant and entertaining talk at #MEEhubs2024 by Julia Vorholt on the use of SynComs to understand plant immun system - microbiota interaction

Elated that MEEHubs2024 was a huge success! I hope that others keep this experiment in mind when planning future conferences. A pleasure to work closely with
@prokaryota.bsky.social @wolframmoebius.bsky.social and @saramitri.bsky.social, but thanks to all hub organizers, sponsors and volunteers!

Thanks #MEEhubs2024 for the opportunity to present my work online, despite the visa delays that prevented me from joining in Lausanne. It was great to interact with the hubs this morning! @meehubs.bsky.social

On my way home from #MEEhubs2024. Feeling exhausted, proud, and privileged to haved worked with amazing colleagues, amongst many most closely with Sara Mitri, @prokaryota.bsky.social and @erikbakkeren.bsky.social. Hopefully, the next @meehubs.bsky.social can have (even) more hubs across the globe!

First out of five #MEEhubs2024 cross-hub activities was on sustainability. Colleagues from near and far shared concerns, reported failures and celebrated successes. Loads of overlap between reported failures and successes means it is worth to keep trying!

🧫🔬🦠🧪 afterthoughts from #MEEHubs2024 cross-hub discussion on microbiome interventions:

1. The outstanding questions in microbiome research relate to those in ecology for the past ... a 40 yrs: community assembly and function

Interesting talk by Senka Causevic (van der Meer lab) observing NatCom (natural community) influence on inoculant bacteria in soil

Superb start of #MEEhubs2024 with a talk by Sarah Knowles on social interactions influence microbiome transmission in wild mice - looking forward to seeing their upcoming #NatureEcoEvo publication on this

First #MEEHubs2024 Lausanne session is over and the city is rarely snowy!

Most impressive talks IMHO were those by Julia Vorholt, Nora Pyenson and Martina Dal Bello!

Will try to catch the Atlanta, Oxford and Cuervanaca hubs later tonight!
