A Microbiologist’s Guide to Yogurt + How to Make Yogurt in the Instant Pot [Recipe]

Last year, I made 26 batches of homemade yogurt and ate probably over 350 yogurt and granola breakfasts (or some variation of that). Since I left the world of laboratory bench work, the kitchen has…

Heute gab es was zu feiern. Das Zentrum für Interdisziplinäre Nachhaltigkeitsforschung #ZIN der @uni-muenster.de wird 10 Jahre alt. Zum Festsymposium gab es ein spannendes Programm mit interdisziplinären Diskussionrunden rund um #Nachhaltigkeit, z.B. zum Thema „Wächst die Zukunft nach? Bioökonomische Strategien und Risiken für Landwirtschaft, Nahrungssicherheit und nachhaltige Rohstoffkreisläufe“. Nur zusammen geht es voran im Thema Nachhaltigkeit. Alles Gute ZIN
