FM @larsloekke: “Deeply saddened by the terrible news from #Pahalgam. Denmark strongly condemns the terrorist attack. My heartfelt condolences during this difficult time. Hoping for a speedy recovery of the injured. We stand with India.” 🇩🇰🇮🇳
Glad to have contributed this article with @ASMicrobiology !
Did you know that some microbes can simultaneously respire aerobically and anaerobically, even in fully oxic environments? @kartiksaiyer elaborates on a flexible strategy that reshapes traditional understanding of microbial metabolism: asm.social/2vy
In my latest article with @ASMicrobiology , I explore how some microbes can simultaneously perform aerobic and anaerobic respiration and discuss the implications of such strategies that seem to reshape our understanding of microbial metabolism. asm.org/articles/2025/…
If you're interested in reading the "behind the paper" story of how we discovered this microbe, have a look at our blog post here: communities.springernature.com/posts/simultan… Sometimes, new discoveries begin not with a grand project, but with an unexpected observation while chasing another story.…
We isolated a new electroactive microbe from the sediment oxic-anoxic interface and were surprised to see it respiring Fe and O2 simultaneously. Thrilled to share the publication now: nature.com/articles/s4146… Sincere thanks to coauthors @JLustermans, Naja and Leonid. @ISMETsociety

Great to meet two of my amazing mentors at once at the Electromicrobiology conference. Two of the best people I've worked with. Thanks a lot @lucindaedoyle and Ian for everything.
OPERATION SINDOOR Pakistan Armed Forces launched multiple attacks using drones and other munitions along entire Western Border on the intervening night of 08 and 09 May 2025. Pak troops also resorted to numerous cease fire violations (CFVs) along the Line of Control in Jammu and…

Our lab version of rock (mud), paper, scissors🤭. The mud always wins in our lab since it's special. #sciencehumor #cablebacteria @CEMAarhus
One of the most rewarding aspects in academia is working with bachelor’s students at the start of their research journey. Their enthusiasm, curiosity, and eagerness to learn are fantastic to see. Glad to be working with them on their projects🙏
Ha ha. Thanks a lot @sebastia_puig . You are now an expert in finding #cablebacteria. @CEMAarhus
@kartiksaiyer @CEMAarhus thank you for such motivating hands on cable bacteria at the red sea @AISMET2025
Glad to be attending the @AISMET2025 in Egypt. Great to see @ISMETsociety expand and become truly global. I will be presenting on #cablebacteria. Looking forward to the conference as well as the wonderful cultural trip. Great job by the organisers led by @OlaGomaa @CEMAarhus
7 days to A-ISMET 2025 :)
नारीशक्ति: गणतंत्र दिवस पर भारत का गौरव! साहस की प्रतिमा, शक्ति की पहचान, नारी ने हर रणभूमि में, बढ़ाया देश का मान। पराक्रम, त्याग और बलिदान की है ये मिसाल, कर्तव्यनिष्ठा से रचती भारत का भविष्य विशाल। Watch #NariShakti radiate on Kartavya Path on Republic Day 2025. #भारतीयसेना…
It was great to meet @lucindaedoyle and @raulraka. Always a pleasure diving into science and great conversations. Grateful for catching up🙏
CONGRATULATIONS TO GUKESH, THE NEW WORLD CHAMPION 🏆 The 18-year-old Indian star has defeated the reigning champion, Ding Liren, to become the youngest-ever undisputed classical chess world champion. Wow! 🇮🇳
16 years since the tragic day- 26/11. Humbly bow down in gratitude to these brave soldiers who sacrificed their lives in protecting the motherland. #MumbaiTerrorAttack
A rare day of winter sun that was beautiful at both sunrise and sunset😊 ॐ मित्राय नमः

Imagine a world where electronic devices are powered by living organisms and biodegrade after use, eliminating the problem of electronic waste. This growing area of research is known as bioelectronics, and microbes are the star of the show! asm.social/2aQ
