I wanted to remind all of the incredible folks on here that Reed Chemistry is hiring! If you have any Q's feel free to DM me; I'm the search chair 😃. And if you have Q's for our amazing Jr faculty like @wimblegon and @NicoleMJames1 I know they'd be happy to help!
Excited to be heading to #ISME19 today! If you’re interested in lanthanides, metallophores, and methylotrophy come see my talk about this paper on Tuesday in the new microbial physiologies and metabolic capacities session 🧲🧫
