Those spectacular photos of the #coronavirus you’ve seen? They probably came from Elizabeth Fischer’s microscope 🔬. It's not exactly #agarart, but the pictures are still worth 1,000 #microbes!

For Elizabeth Fischer, looking through an electron microscope was like many of the outdoor adventures she enjoys: “You’re looking at a world that most people don’t get to see.” 
Photographing the new #coronavirus: “They’re very elegant, and they’re not malicious in and of themselves. They’re just doing what they do.”

Este es un trabajo de otro artista-científico hecho con bacterias

Si mo tuviéramos bacterias en el intestino no podríamos procesar los alimentos que comemos, ejemplifica Mehmet. También tienen un papel en la depresión...
Solo las vemos cuando algo está podrido o cuando hay una enfermedad...pero las bacterias son mucho más cuando no las vemos
