Welcome, Tiny Earthling!

Whether you are currently enrolled in a Tiny Earth course or took the course in a previous term, we welcome you into the network of more than 18,000 students per year working together to address the dwindling supply of antibiotics. We hope you find the course inspiring and discover something new.

There are many ways to be involved during the semester, such as contributing isolates to the Tiny Earth Discovery Database, participating in social media campaigns to raise awareness about antibiotic resistance, and attending events where you can present your Tiny Earth research to other Tiny Earthlings around the world.
