This week:

Welcome to the AMRI roundup, our weekly newsletter to keep you informed on the latest happenings in and beyond our network.

Did you attend AMRI Week?

Keep an eye out for a short survey that we’ll be rolling out in the coming week. We want to hear from you on what events you’d like AMRI to organize, and how we can make them inspiring!

AMRI Researchers in the News:

AMRI Co-PI Hanna Farnelid and LNU researcher Kristofer Bergström are featured in SVT’s piece on the Linnaeus University Microbial Observatory - an open sea research station, 11 kilometers off the coast of Öland. 2021 marked 10 years of sampling at LMO, with 341 sampling trips complete!
