 I'm Kasten Ture-Jakobsen, I'm a professor and head of the Department of Environmental Science at Aarhus University. It's a big pleasure to be asked to organize a session on Poland Alpine Microbiology at FEMS 2019 in Glasgow. So we're setting up a session which is very much looking of course into what is going on with the changing environment in the Arctic. And what we do is actually that we try to go also technologically beyond 16S. So you would see a lot of methods, you know, driven investigations that would focus on permafrost. So I would give a talk about total RNA used into the profiling of microbial communities, not only bacteria but also viruses and protist fungi at the same time. Then Tim Ulrich would continue this line and he is giving a presentation where he would go further on with permafrost and total RNA. Then Janne Jansson is going to present her work on permafrost which is total mesotranscriptomic. And then finally Alexanisio is going to give a talk on the change of the color of the Greenlandic ice cap and he called it 50 shades of brown. So I think it's going to be a really interesting session and hope to see you all in Glasgow. Thank you.
