We made a short, cute, animated film for @sciam about subsurface microbes and what they can do for us! This is from work with @pbarry10 @DavidTerryFine @MaartendeMoor @d_giovannelli and others! It's dubbed in Spanish too!
Wherever we dig and however deep we dig we find microscopic living organisms. Could the mysterious microbes in earth’s crust unlock a climate change solution? 🥼 @archaearama @pbarry10 🎞️ Voyager 🎥 David Terry Fine 🔗 bit.ly/3TUx1hI

Endospores in sediments germinate and produce acetate at 80°C. Could buried endospores do this in the deep, hot subseafloor biosphere? We suggest they could @AngeSherry @jayne_rat @CRJHubert Now #OpenAccess at @Environmicrobi sfamjournals.onlinelibrary.w…

Last year we did some 16S rRNA sequencing at sea, and today I'll be presenting a poster on our remote and offline sequencing protocol using the @nanopore minION (poster 280). #isme18
