Beer is alive!

How to use beer for scientific outreach


Teresa Müller & Bérénice Batut

Pint of Science - Freiburg - May 2019

Anna loves craft beer

What is a micro-organism?

Note:

Need to change it probably

Where can we find micro-organisms?

Note:

Make them vote for each image if there is micro-organisms

And what about in humans?

And what about in humans?

But micro-organisms are mostly beneficial in humans

Do we have more micro-organism cells or
human cells in our own body?

  • 10 times more micro-organism cells than human cells
  • More than 10,000 different microbe species in one human

What about beer?

How to identify micro-organisms?

Note:

  • Historically, cultivation
  • only 10% can be cultivated

More than 90% of micro-organisms are unculturable

Any other solution?

  • How can we compare micro-organisms?
  • What do you have in common with any other living organisms?
  • What does make you different from your neighbor?

DNA the blueprint of life

Note:

  • DNA is the common element between organisms.
  • But how can you determine it's difference?

What is DNA?

Note:

  • alphabets
  • ATCG small moleculs
  • consits of atoms
  • Atoms are social
  • How can we now read the DNA?

Do you remember?

DNA Sequencing

[Sources](https://lerninhalte.blogspot.com/2013/04/dna-sequenzierung-kettenabbruchmethode.html)

Note:

  • Sanger: Very accurate but not feasable whole genones! Do you konw of any genome or sequencing projects?

The Human genome project

Note: Huge development: Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) or High Throughput Sequencing (HTS)

How much effort to sequence a human genome?

How to identify micro-organisms?

Which micro-organisms inside beers?

"Beer Decoded"

Sequencing and microbiota are part of our life

Anna is not alone!
