MBA#15 Diana Machado de Sousa (Microbial Special Series)
Multi-culture fermentation is the next frontier for biotech. Can we create a community of microbes who can do the job? We explore various metabolic pathways to learn more about how syntrophic metabolism works. Can we develop natural catalysts by creating robust systems? And what is the effect of Bacteriophage to...

#11 MBA Microbes Specials SeriesIn this episode we will investigate How and why do microbes crack chemicals like PFAS and how did they found a way to bind metals?
Read MoreMBA#10 Willy Verstraete (Microbes Specials Series)
#10 MBA Microbes Specials SeriesIn this episode we will investigate how bacteria will power the sustainable industrial revolution. What does nitrogen, calcium and hydrogen have to do with it? Why and how do the microbes do it? And what can we learn from microbes about their and even our own...
Read MoreMBA#09 Mark van Loosdrecht (Microbial Special Series)
In this episode we will investigate the recent insights about bacterial biofilms. What is the role of Sialic Acid and what are the possible (industrial) applications? And what can we learn from microbes about their and even our own metabolism.
Read MoreMBA#08 Gert Jan Euverink (Microbes special series)
In this episode we will investigate how it is possible that even bacteria can produce a type of bioplastics, which is called PHA. And even more remarkable this PHA turns out to be also a natural feedstock for them. Why and how do they do that? And what can we...
Read MoreMBA#07 Jan Gerritse (Microbes special series)
Listen to the podcasts on Anchor | Itunes | Spotify In this episode we will investigate why Microbes can crack even the most difficult and stable natural and man-made molecules, such as Benzene, Naphthalene and PFAS. Why and how do they do that? And what can we learn from microbes...
Read MoreMBA#06 Viruses through a different lens with Marc van Bemmel and Richard Kormelink
Let’s talk about what viruses can teach us and how we could use them in a positive way! Join this exploitative dialogue to look at our natural world from different perspectives. What if we would be able to zoom out? Leaving the microscope and our traditional human perspective on viruses...
