As the only marine institute within @maxplanckpress, we aim to better understand microbial life in the oceans. Currently inactive @mpimarinemicrobio.bsky.social
Congratulations on the new paper!! 🥳👏
Our new paper is out in @SciReports We show that microbial communities on individual sand grains create anoxic #microenvironments—enhancing nitrogen loss even in oxygenated coastal #sediments doi.org/10.1038/s41598… #NitrogenCycle #MarineScience @MarineMicrobio @BiogeoMPIBremen
Kicking off the scientific program with our first keynote speaker! Ulisse Cardini opened the EuroC1 Conference with a fascinating talk on “Seagrass meadows as climate regulators”. A great start to an exciting lineup of talks! #EuroC1 #MarineScience #Seagrass @MarineMicrobio

Just 2 days to go until we can welcome the participants of the EuroC1 Meeting 2025 here in #Bremen. Young &established researchers will present findings & engage in insightful discussions on #C1 #metabolism and volatile #organic compound-related topics. mpi-bremen.de/EuroC1-Sympo...

Tough guys: A new study @NatureComms shows that ice #algae grow extremely efficiently, despite having hardly any #nutrients at hand. They can thus accelerate #glacier #melting, highly relevant for our #climate. mpi-bremen.de/en/Resilient-a… nature.com/articles/s4146… @AarhusUni

#February11 – International Day of Women & Girls in Science. At our institute, we are proud to have women at all career stages, from student to director. Their work and dedication lead the way for future generations of women in #marinescience! 👩🔬💡 #WomenInSTEM @maxplanckpress
Danke für den Besuch – die Chemielaborant:innen der Europaschule Utbremen waren bei uns zu Gast! Unsere #Azubi Janne gab ihnen Einblicke in ihre Arbeit an unserem Institut, tatkräftig unterstützt von einigen Forscher:innen und Mitarbeitenden der Labore und Werkstätten. #CTA



Seht mal! Passend zum Start ins neue Jahr präsentieren wir euch nun, begleitend zu unserem Trickfilm „Abenteuer Tiefsee”, ein spannenden Wissenschafts-Comic. Das Heft gibt es jetzt gratis zum Download auf unserer Website (im Bereich Presse)! @scienceintermed #sciencecomics
Hier ist „Abenteuer Tiefsee“: aktuelle Forschung als unterhaltsames Trickfilmabenteuer. 🎬 Erlebt unsere spannende Arbeit mit dem Team des Forschungsschiffs „Tiefsee“. Die 1. Episode zeigt ein Wunder der stockfinsteren Tiefsee – die Chemosynthese. Viel Spaß beim Anschauen!
Hier könnt Ihr nachlesen, wie unsere Forschenden um Jana Milucka @BiogeoMPIBremen nützlichen Helfern beim Kampf gegen Klimawandel nachforscht: wfb-bremen.de/de/page/storie… @WFBBremen #MINT #WomeninSTEM #Methan #Mikrobiologie #MachMINT

Welcome Streptomyces dubilierae! 😀 Our director @NicoleDubilier is having a strain named after her, honouring her contributions to the study of #symbioses of #microbes. Congratulations, and many thanks to the appreciating researchers @Leibniz_DSMZ_en!👏🎉🦠🎊 @maxplanckpress
