We will be recruiting a postdoc to work on a CIHR-funded project in microbiome stewardship. The aim is to understand how different definitions of microbial diversity influence how we interpret the "health" of microbiomes. Job ad will be forthcoming, but if this sounds interesting do get in touch!

I love this phase of my life where all my favorite bands from the 90's are going on tour again. Artists are thriving, in their 50s, well hydrated, and eating more vegetables. And I get to sing along in the crowd with all the cool dads 😎

Monday's lunch leaked. Roasted sweet potato sticky syrupy ooze pooling at the bottom of my computer bag. Nice.

Ahh it's 6P and you are justifying some wild assumptions to figure out the calculations you didn't consider... my brain had to ditch something important to extract the volume of a cylinder. But soils are flooded and on the column! Burp baby burp :)

Spending down grant money as shopping therapy 🛍 to deal with the stress of a deadline for a different grant is pretty great. Maybe not healthy? But effective.

Time to get this feed started. Life update: one year at this Assistant Prof gig, and brand new first time home buyer! Celebrated earlier this month with a quick trip to Asheville.
