My wife, Janet, and I have been married 25 years today. She's an amazing blessing in my life and for our 3 kids, and she brings a whole lot of laughter and love! Science careers can be pretty tough, and it's awesome I've been able to walk through mine entirely with Janet.

Always fun to see the group's research trending in the right direction. Jack's paper on tetrazole probes for carbohydrate metabolism in the gut microbiome is doing great!

This Easter, I invite you to look at Jesus, consider what he said and did, and ask for yourself what I believe is the most important question you will ever answer: Did he really leave behind an empty tomb? And if he did, what does that mean for you? This video was made possible and in collaboration with my friends at @ChildlikeMedia.
