- Reposted by Pedro M. Pereira (MicrobeMatos)Our Researcher @mariodelr.bsky.social and Raquel Portela from @microbematos.bsky.social were invited by @healthnewspt.bsky.social to talk about their new collaboration project awarded by Early Career Research Award, 𝗜𝗻𝗳𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗼𝗙𝗶𝗧𝗧.

- Reposted by Pedro M. Pereira (MicrobeMatos)Do you know how far phototoxicity can hinder your experiments?🤔 @mariodelr.bsky.social and @gomez-mariscal.bsky.social have just published their work on #PhotoFiTT in @natcomms.nature.com where they explain how to quantitatively measure it in live-cell imaging.⚡🧫🔬 Read more at: shorturl.at/ly9Zn
- It’s FINALLY out! 🎉🚀 We have been working on PhotoFiTT for a long time, and it’s now published, introducing a quantitative framework to measure phototoxicity and optimise live-cell microscopy experiments. So excited to finally share the last version! 🔬✨ #PhotoFiTT doi.org/10.1038/s414...
- #PhotoFiTT is out! 🚀 Addressing phototoxicity is critical for live-cell imaging & we're happy to contribute with a framework that can help mitigate it. Huge kudos to the team! Read all about it here :) nature.com/articles/s41467-025-66209-6

- Reposted by Pedro M. Pereira (MicrobeMatos)Last Friday we celebrated @itqbnova.bsky.social Day!🎂🥂 In the ceremony,𝗘𝗖𝗥𝗔 𝗽𝗿𝗶𝘇𝗲 was awarded to researchers @mariodelr.bsky.social & Raquel Portela (from @microbematos.bsky.social IMIB group) in recognition of their outstanding proposal: InfectoFITT.🏅 Award sponsored by #OeirasValley and #Sarstedt
- This week we had an amazing science #outreach period at @itqbnova.bsky.social! We had the #openday which had over 2000 visitors. Also our guest Federico from @cambridgeuni.bsky.social was kind enough to volunteer for the "A scientist walks into a school" to talk about #DNA #nanostructures and #AMR
- Having fun playing with the OGI3 #Bioreactor System from @ogibiotec.bsky.social! No more waiting for our #bacteria to reach the right OD before infecting some host cells (poor cells) :D #happy #microbiology #automation
- Reposted by Pedro M. Pereira (MicrobeMatos)And to start 2025 strong… Our work #NanoPyx is out in Nature Methods 😍❤️ DOI: doi.org/10.1038/s415... #NanoPyx is a Python framework that uses the #LiquidEngine to efficiently accelerate bioimage analysis for any user! (1/n) ⬇️
- Super happy to have contributed to this amazing work - both because it was an absolute pleasure working with this incredible team 😊 and because #NanoPyx and the #LiquidEngine will be immensely useful for the scientific community! What a fantastic way to kick off 2025! 🎉
- Reposted by Pedro M. Pereira (MicrobeMatos)I could not be more thrilled to announce the Nature Methods @naturemethods.bsky.social Method of the Year is Spatial Proteomics! Please see our editorial as a roadmap to the fantastic content in this special issue! www.nature.com/articles/s41...

- Reposted by Pedro M. Pereira (MicrobeMatos)New paper out in @ScienceMagazine! In 8 studies (multiple platforms, methods, time periods) we find: misinformation evokes more outrage than trustworthy news, when it does it's shared more + ppl are less likely to read before sharing. w/ @killianmcl1 @Klonick @mollycrockett 🧵👇
- Reposted by Pedro M. Pereira (MicrobeMatos)It’s out!! We subjected soils from 30 different locations across Europe to extreme events and found that soil fungal and bacterial communities showed consistent responses that could be predicted from their origin! With @knightjar.bsky.social and many collaborators! www.nature.com/articles/s41...
