Join us for the FEMS Microbiology Ecology Webinar on “Microbial Ecology for a Sustainable Future – Engaging the Next Generation of Researchers.” This insightful session will explore the innovative research from a thematic issue guest edited by dynamic Early Career Researchers (ECRs). Our guest editors will share their experiences, enhancing the webinar by discussing their roles in steering this initiative to actively involve ECRs in significant scientific discussions.

Then enjoy presentations from three authors from the Thematic Issue on the seasonal dynamics of microbial methane filters in coastal waters, the defensive and nutritional roles of Erwiniaceae bacteria in ambrosia beetles, and strategies for integrating sustainability into microbiology labs. These studies not only push the boundaries of ecological understanding but also underscore the critical role of microbes in addressing environmental challenges. This webinar is designed for microbiologists, students, and enthusiasts eager to see how cutting-edge research can drive practical solutions for global sustainability issues while fostering the next generation of scientific thought leaders. Join us to be part of this vital conversation.
