I am deeply grateful to receive the Losada Villasante Award. This recognition is shared with my entire Carrion lab team and my family, whose support and dedication made this possible cadenaser.com/andalucia/20...

We updated our comparative genomics pipeline bacLIFE, it will now make use of BAKTA and BiG-SCAPE in addition to the newest PFAM and DBCAN database. LAGs and GCFs are now better annotated. Several other minor changes are included too. @vcarryon.bsky.social github.com/Carrion-lab/...

Similar microbes, different outcomes. Why do some rhizobial bacteroids fix nitrogen in legumes better than others? Check out the online version of our latest work by @poolelaboxford.bsky.social, an historical lab project showing how this comes down to differentiation 😉 ➡️ doi.org/10.1093/plph...

Last month we supported the 6th Plant Microbiome Symposium in Antequera, Spain, funding 17 travel grants for ECRs to attend. Organiser Dr Victor Jose Carrion Bravo reports back on a vibrant exchange of ideas. www.the-microbiologist.com/careers/fasc... @vcarryon.bsky.social @ihsmumacsic.bsky.social

Together with a team of great colleagues, we edit a collection titled "Harnessing plant microbiomes to improve performance and mechanistic understanding" nature.com/collections/cg… in the journals @natureportfolio.nature.com @microbiomej.bsky.social . It's open for submission till June 2026.

The last talk of #PMS2025 by Adam @adamoss.bsky.social from the lab of @vcarryon.bsky.social. Besides a great scientist Adam also organized a lot of the meeting.

@vcarryon.bsky.social closes the #PMS2025 meeting in Antequera, thanking the amazing Cruz Ruiz and her Acoeventis team and his fabulous local scientific team in Malaga.

Jos Raaijmakers thanks @vcarryon.bsky.social and his team for a totally incredible meeting in Antequeran Thanks Vic et al, it was a supermeeting. After ISBA2025 I know how much work it is! Have a well deserved little break.

Had a great week at #PSM2025 - excellent science, great organisation, and super friendly people. Really enjoyed presenting our work on the oak microbiome and leaving here with lots of ideas for future work and collaborations. Thanks @vcarryon.bsky.social & team for organising @microsos.bsky.social

Had such a great time at #PMS2025 🦠🌱 Met some of my favourite UK colleagues & made many new connections, especially in Spain! Huge shoutout to the organisers @vcarryon.bsky.social for putting together such an inspiring programme, creating the perfect atmosphere for networking & showing us Antequera!

Excellent week in Malaga for the #PMS25 top science and top social programmes @carmen-agro.bsky.social

Such a team @iandealidbury.bsky.social, more conferences like this! 🙌🏻 @rafamorcillo.bsky.social @iplantmicro.bsky.social @vcarryon.bsky.social And well done the Sheffield group, congrats to Alex on the poster prize! 😉
