So cool. So many known faces. Excited to know what comes out. Here to root exudates we have recently collected in one of our very large experiments.

I am not officially part of the summer school, but I reached out, and thanks to @CarolynGorres, I was welcomed as an online participant. Grateful for this spirit of inclusivity in science! 🌍🧪 #InclusiveScience #Gratitude

We are digging into how barley domestication shaped root and rhizosphere traits. Just look at those stunning roots! 🌾. I will be displaying some preliminary results at #Rhizosphere6 conf.

On the same mission in another part of the world with main focus on #barley. Good luck!!

Fun fact: Soil's rusty color comes from the same iron oxides as metal rust.
Nature's beauty.
I wish I could show a better closeup.

New year, new research! 🌱 Excited to dig deeper into the fascinating mangrove ecosystems of the Middle East. 🌍🌊 Stay tuned for insights on their vital role in hosting unique biodiversity, carbon storage, and coastal resilience! #MangroveResearch

Long & tiring yet fulfilling day sampling mangrove roots and sediments...
More will follow soon.

First post!!
In one of my lab projects, we are trying to understand Blue Carbon dynamics by implying one of the community ecology theories. Stay tuned!!
