Dear ÖGMBT members,   our next installment of the FEMS Webinar series presents research from FEMS Microbes! This webinar will be packed full of insightful presentations taking a look at the world of microbial dark matter. FEMS Microbes Webinar on Microbial Dark Matter We hope you can make this exciting session. Registration is free, so please spread the word amongst your networks! Full details below. Best regards, Joseph Brooks Shuttleworth, Marketing & Communications Manager

FEMS Microbes Webinar on Microbial Dark Matter Join us for the FEMS Microbes Webinar on “Microbial Dark Matter,” where we delve into uncharted territories of microbial research with significant implications for public health, industry, and environmental science. This session features cutting-edge studies exploring novel microbial sources for antimicrobial compounds, innovative protein profiling in pathogenic bacteria, and groundbreaking non-invasive techniques for characterizing anaerobic gut fungi. Discover how neotropical social wasps could be a new frontier for antibiotic discovery, understand the complexities of protein functions in vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium, and learn about the potential of near-infrared spectroscopy and hyperspectral imaging in microbiology research. Ideal for microbiologists, students, and science enthusiasts, this webinar is set to illuminate the depths of microbial potential and innovation. Join our Editors and authors as they share their findings and experiences in pushing the boundaries of microbiology. Register Now
