Ruiwen Hu, a postdoc in #BioEGSB, attended #LiNo25 in #Chemistry as part of the UC President’s annual fellowship program. The event “offered a rare opportunity to engage directly with some of the world’s foremost scientific minds," including Nobel Laureate Moungi Bawendi (pictured with Hu).

New preprint by Ruiwen Hu @microbialcookie.bsky.social! We show that carbon oxidation state shapes carbon degradation in rice paddy sediments. Negative NOSC = slower degradation, more methane, and more syntrophs & methanogens but fewer fermenters. Genomes reflect thermodynamic preferences.
Organic carbon oxidation state shapes fermentative methanogenic microbiomes and controls greenhouse gas fluxes https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2025.05.12.653603v1
