SCIENCE AND BEERS: MICROBES ON THE MICROPHONE

Science and Beers is a series of science talks. The goal is to communicate science in a fun, accessible way, and to normalize science conversations in social settings.

Step into the hidden world of microorganisms—tiny, unseen creatures that play a massive role in our health, climate, and the very fabric of life on Earth. How can something so small exert such powerful influence? Though we can’t hear them, these microbes are constantly talking to each other, and thereby shaping our world in ways we’re just beginning to understand. Tonight, we’ll hand over the microphone to the microbes, uncovering the secrets of their hidden conversations and explaining why understanding them is crucial for us all.

The speaker:
Nathalie Eiris Henriksen is a marine microbiologist and researcher at the Technical University of Denmark. She earned her Ph.D. in 2022, focusing on how microorganisms in the sea communicate. In April 2024, she won the “Forskerfesten – Ph.d. Cup 2024,” broadcast on DR1, for her ability to explain her research on how microorganisms communicate.
