ABOUT SUTS

Planet Earth is infested with germs. They coat everything from the surface of our skin to the machines we use, and yes, even the food we eat. Some of these germs can make us sick, some disgust us with their putrid byproducts, while still others poison the very air we breathe. But hiding amidst these tales of illness and foul decomposition is a love story of epic proportions. Amidst the fray of villainous viruses, bad bacteria, and insidious fungi are a few unsung heroes and gifted culinary artisans. What happens when animals break bread with these good microorganisms? What possibilities are unlocked when two unlikely allies team up and turn terrible into terribly wonderful? Together we’ll embark on an unexpectedly delicious adventure. Please join Tristan Kubik at 7pm, March 9, for a leavenly evening as he relates one of the world’s lesser-known love stories, a tale of deliberate food spoilage we affectionately refer to as fermentation!

Please join us at our first SUTS talk of the spring semester in person or virtually @ 7pm, Feb 9, with Becca Carden 🔥🌳 Arrive early for kids' table and natural history displays before the talk!

Welcome to 2023 and we hope you are ready for some fantastic talks this spring! Please mark your calendars for our four splendid speakers presenting cool biology on the second Thursday of every month:

December is almost here, and we are just one week away from our final SUTS talk of the semester! Please join us in person or virtually @ 7pm on December 8 for Pete Golightly's talk on cool microbes in the deep ocean! As usual, we will have kids' table and natural history displays before the talk.

Our November talk is right around the corner! Xinyi Yan will talk about what soil microbiomes are and why they are important to our world @ 8 pm on November 10, Brackenridge Field Lab. Join us at 7 pm for kid's activities, natural history displays, and a tour of the field lab!

Did you learn something new about bats yesterday? 🦇🦇🦇
