The Antarctic Ice Sheet, traditionally considered of low microbial diversity, is one of the most extreme environments on Earth. ❄️ Yet, contrary to these beliefs, these environments contain diverse microbial communities; the focus of this #FEMSmicroBlog. buff.ly/SGoJNhM

What else can CRISPR-Cas systems do beyond defending microbes? Quite a lot it turns out. From DNA repair & gene regulation to genome evolution & microbial physiology, research is revealing an increasingly complex picture. Read the issue in microLife buff.ly/Bc3Sg4b

Microbes are fundamental to human, animal, and environmental health. Yet their role is often limited in discussions around health policy. This paper argues why that should not be the case & how we can build more integrated health polcies: buff.ly/9wLXaRo #OneHealthDay

The European Academy of Microbiology brings together Fellows to forge interdisciplinary links stretching across the breadth of microbiology. In our 2026 EAM Summit wrap-up, Fellows explain the unique value of sharing perspectives from across the discipline and the continent:

Learn from Lígia Coelho, Rachel Armstrong, Hauke Smidt, and Tillmann Lueders at #FEMSMICRO. Every expert started by sharing their research, growing their network, and engaging with their community. Share your research and be part of the programme. buff.ly/o6TutvW
