For a fews days (and nights) @biomin-impmc.bsky.social team is at Synchrotron Soleil on the Nanoscopium beamline. We are analysing different natural samples : cyanocatena, stromatolites, ancien fossils...

Yesterday and today we had the pleasure to participate to a meeting of the very multidisciplinary French community working on biominerals and biomineralization. Very stimulating. @BImpmc @IMPMC_Lab @beamm_team #biomineralization

After our participation in the SUAVES project, the team was invited to the opening of the exhibition “Research without filter. Photographers' views on science and the humanities”. A wonderful exhibition to be seen during the weekend of the science festival at Sorbonne University

Yesterday, Jeanne Caumartin from the BIOMIN group, publicly defended her PhD about the formation of modern microbialites under anoxic conditions. This was remarkably well done. Congratulation to her. @CarbonneMa28039, @DEEMteam_Orsay
