Yesterday, Vibeke Nielsen received her Master’s degree for her project “Microbial Communities and Settling Behaviour in Activated Sludge Plants” 🥳 We would like to thank our #MiDAS collaborators, who contributed to the project.

Important and abundant uncharacterised Chloroflexi populations in annamox, AS and reactors, and a new favourite in our lab @PerHNielsen? "Ca. Villigracilis nielsenii" 😀

For the sediments it proved more complex due to high diversity, and especially for the marine sample there was high-strain complexity of cable bacteria, but Mantas was still able to obtain 2 HQ genomes (1 in 1 contig) by subsampling, re-assembly, and re-binning. Not easy.. 6/10

Genome recovery is highly dependent on species abundance and strain complexity. For the enrichment sample, we recovered 50+ (!!!) cicular metagenome-assembled genomes (cMAGs), including the Ca. Electronema aureum as expected. Easy peasy.. 5/10

Genomes in hand, Francesca did metabolic reconstruction. First, she looked if the prev incomplete genomes had missed genes, that explained the long-distance electron transfer. We didn't find the smoking gun, but with complete genomes, we are now certain that it hides within! 8/10

In a great collaboration with @CEMAarhus, we have used high-throughput @nanopore metagenomics to recover the first closed genomes of the enigmatic "Cable bacteria"! A thread, 1/10 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Autumn has just started in Denmark and we people are slowly putting on our sweaters again, but how do #microbes feel about these changes and do they also have a favourite season? You can read all about it at poster 241 or find Mariam for a talk

If you go to poster 188, you will find out how you can use machine learning to predict the dynamics in a microbial community! Are you more interested in @midasguide or #ampvis in R? No problem! Kasper is also ready to discuss that!

If you are interested in #foaming or #nutrientremoval in #wastewater, you can have a look at @zivilekon poster number 130. You will also see her beautiful FISH images of Chloroflexota! 🐟

Super proud of @lamurias who have realized our vague idea of metagenome binning should be a "graph" problem. Looking forward to integrating new features and scalability to very (!) large long-read metagenome datasets. @VILLUMscience

You hear a lot about fecal transplantations these days, but what happens when you disturb a full scale wastewater treatment plant with a massive activated sludge transplantation? Find @GiuliaDottorini at poster 391 to talk about it!
