While you wait for the next MEEhubs conference: We've written up the participants' impressions, the organisers' thoughts, reflections on the expectations we scientists have on conferences, and much more in @femsjournals.bsky.social, led by Ariane Wenger. Check out doi.org/10.1093/fems....

Catching up on @meehubs.bsky.social talks!

The best part of hybrid/dispersed meetings is that it’s not just travel, take in the science, go home… the recordings persist into lunch breaks and spare minutes for weeks to come.

Fifth and last #MEEhubs2024 cross-hub activity on diversity in science. Lively discussion which could only scratch the surface.

Fourth cross-hub activity on predicting evolution at @meehubs.bsky.social. Really nice to see the thoughts from the audience!

I love seeing how people adapt to the hub format of @meehubs.bsky.social. Questions across hubs and with online participants all the time. Now a talk in Lausanne advertising a related poster in San Diego!

Third cross-hub activity at #MEEHubs2024 was on art in science communication, experimenting with a fusion of panel discussion and including the audience using the technology.

A thought-provoking cross-hub discussion this morning on how to reconcile top-down and bottom-up approaches in microbiology research, led by Jan van der Meer at the Lausanne hub. If you weren't there, watch the recording! #MicroSky

First day of @meehubs.bsky.social: small hiccups here and there, and running a bit behind schedule by the end of day, but overall -- incredibly smooth!

And cross-hub Q&A during live talks works reasonably well, too. Glad to be part of this even though it is a lot of work behind the scenes.

First out of five #MEEhubs2024 cross-hub activities was on sustainability. Colleagues from near and far shared concerns, reported failures and celebrated successes. Loads of overlap between reported failures and successes means it is worth to keep trying!

It was a beautiful presentation!
Thanks #MEEhubs2024 for the opportunity to present my work online, despite the visa delays that prevented me from joining in Lausanne. It was great to interact with the hubs this morning! @meehubs.bsky.social
