We're recruiting a postdoctoral scholar focused on greenhouse gas consumption by bacteria and archaea. The research will involve designing and operating bench-scale bioreactors for enrichment and culturing of isolated microorganisms from mixed communities aeesp.org/jobs/3050

@Peters2Paige repping RRT at @IWA_AD17. You can’t solve the problems of the future using solutions from the past, and that’s what we have in common with #AD17!

Hey folks at #AD17, come take a SIP and start your day right this morning ☕️. We’ve got two flavors brewed up for you in the Microbial Ecology session — @lizilla93 is kicking things off with protein SIP, and @KateWaring3 is serving up some DNA SIP. I’ll see you there! @IWA_AD17

Insanely proud of this well deserved accolade to my PhD advisor @LutRaskin…a fantastic scientist, engineer, mentor, and friend!!
U-M CEE@UM_CEE2 Oct 2021
Congratulations to @LutRaskin on her official induction as a member of @theNAEng today! Her work has fundamentally shaped how microbial ecology-based research can be applied to solve problems in pollution control, clean water and renewable energy. cee.engin.umich.edu/2021/10/…
