The #ASMicrobe journey took me from NY to Chicago to LA overland, trailing tornadoes, downed power lines and ending with a burning engine at the entrance to the Mojave desert, where we hitched a ride on a bus and vaulted some fences to catch the last tram out of Union station. Took some good photos though!
Really glad I crammed in those expired packs of #polaroid films into the already overstuffed bag.
A great thing about a gigantic conference like #ASMicrobe is the diversity of represented interests - which makes it far easier to figure out what niche my current focus generally falls under. For me, when in doubt checking out an EEB poster or session worked out perfectly.
More people should stop by EEB-SUNDAY-1139 - Mining the ATCC Genome Portal: Genomic Insights into Unsequenced Taxa and Rare Historical Strains in the American Type Culture Collection, and talk to Scott. Treasure trove of microbial info there, forgotten human records and cells alike #asmicrobe
Absolutely delighted by the morning's talk- Geovirology: Bacteriophage influences on bacterial geochemical signatures by Cynthia Silveira, University of Miami
That IV bag-glove box setup for studying PSB samples was amazing. Also, viral/bacterial geological records? Wow #asmicrobe
Alright fellas. Come one come all, #amateurbiology poster presentation at #asmicrobe on our first set of methylation screening results on Halococcus. Come ask about an exciting new finding I couldn't put on the poster! #archaea EEB 1147 #microbiology
Hey #ASMicrobe, I heard u like bacteria : ) I'm not there this year but you can order online artologica.etsy.com 🧪🐡🦠
Here are the #thrashlab presentations at #ASMicrobe this year, in chronological order:
Zack Henning AES-FRIDAY-793
Metagenomic Insights into Seasonal Hypoxia: Unveiling Microbial Diversity in the Northern Gulf of Mexico
Hasti Asrari EEB-SATURDAY-1101
Environmental Drivers of SAR11 Strain-Level Dynamics in the Coastal Northern Gulf of Mexico
1/2...
Anyone interested in checking out a self-funded amateur biology research, do feel free to stop by! Also looking for feedback of any and all kinds for further research! EEB-SUNDAY-1155 #ASMicrobe #asm2024
Is it vain to take a selfie with yourself? #asmicrobe
Madly querying genbank, building trees and typing notes with a collaborator at #ASMicrobe
We're so close to actually writing out a paper during the first day of the conference! #ASM2024
#ASMicrobe is happening this week, which means there will be a lot of scientists talk talk talking. Here are ways to prepare yourself for a future presentation, inspired by singing! : https://bmtalbot.github.io/2024-06-11-SciCom/

#FunFact, when I was a child my dream was to become a virologist and work at the @CDCgov in emerging virus control… I deviated from that path a bit (did become a virologist tho)
Travelling to Atlanta for #ASMicrobe takes me back to that my young self ☺️
En route to #ASMicrobe in lovely (and hot) Atlanta. It’s hard to bump into people, so if you’re there and would like to chat, let me know!
Looking forward to a great #micro week
Thanks to the ASM team for a fantastic conference. Read more about our team's activities during #ASMicrobe 2023 https://microbiomedata.org/2023/06/27/asm_2023/
coming up in less than 45 min at #ASMicrobe #DrinkingWaterMicrobiome. Be ✅ or be 🔲
Attending #asmicrobe? Consider attending the "IDS028. Drinking water microbiome? from measurement to management" on June 17th, 2023, 8:15-10:15 am. I'll be giving a talk titled "Insights on the structural and functional biogeography of the drinking water microbiome" in this session along with several colleagues doing exciting work in this space. #drinkingwater #microbiology #microbiome
Landed in Houston. This heat!! #ASMicrobe
#ASMicrobe is almost here! Meet with Computomics at ASM Microbe in Houston, Texas from June 15-19. Seize this chance to chat with our expert for tailored metagenomics solutions Sascha Patz 👉 https://tinyurl.com/px9k37f5
Sascha will be happy to meet with you 🤗 See you in Houston!

#ThrashLab presentations at #ASMicrobe 2023 - 4 interesting posters and one rapid fire talk covering everything from SAR11 PHAs to Roseobacter to hydrocarbon degraders. From @ShelbyJBarnes1 @jordantcoelho @GreenwoodBritt and Cole Hider https://thethrashlab.com/2023/06/01/thrashlab-presentations-at-asmicrobe-2023/
Holey moley! Lovers of gasdermins, mitochondrial pores, pore forming toxins, secretion systems, etc:
Submit an abstract to our "In-depth symposium" at #ASMicrobe: Role of Host and Microbial pore-forming proteins in regulating infection and immunity.
