Nice to see the first experimental paper on our microbial biospheres out.
Is anybody else slightly irritated by the use of "evolution" in the biological literature when they really mean development or a shift over time in something?
Should we have a common model plant-soil ecosystem?
Especially ecotoxicology, I think, could profit a lot from that.

In my course 'Creativity in the scientific process', the students worked using Lego Serious Play again.
Always interesting how different the models are....

Looking at system persistence/ failure was already the idea in our first concept paper 7 years ago:
