I adore bacterial bioluminescence! Here I am years ago, illuminated by a stack of Petri dishes with Photobacterium. 5 seconds on one side of the stack, 5 seconds on the other. Fun! #MicrobialEvangelist #MicrobialCentricity #BacterialBioluminescence @microbetv.bsky.social @asm.org

Think about the individual microbes, unaware, making light as part of something vast and beautiful and to them unknowable. #MicrobialCentricity #MicrobialArt #BacterialBioluminescence @asmicrobiology @microbe.tv

Another #MicrobialTruth.

It’s all part of #MicrobialPerspective and #MicrobialCentricity

Well, yes. All of my adult life. And I hope I can find ways to continue to do so! #MicrobialCentricity #MicrobialEvangelist #RetiredButNotRetiring

Collecting a seawater sample on the way to Sumner in Christchurch NZ. Yes, a #TardiDoc is with me. Cannot wait to see #WhoGrowsThere. asmicrobiology @MicrobeTV univpugetsound #MicrobialCentricity #DocMartinInternational

I have long encouraged my microbiology students to explore their creative sides. I have a wonderful collection of #MicroArt pieces from students over the years. This one is framed in my lab, and makes me chuckle. This student *gets* me. #GratefulProf #MicrobialCentricity #ScienceArt

This was always my philosophy when I taught microbiology. PS: I hope folks get the reference and quite here. I hope Clive Barker doesn’t mind. #DeadlyCentrisms #MicrobialCentricity #DownWithEukaryocentrism
