Great experiment where Giulia can participate thanks to a @isme-microbes.bsky.social grant!
I’m at the University of South Bohemia, collaborating with the Aquatic Ecology Lab and the Institute of Hydrobiology. I’m studying how climate change and pollutants impact freshwater ecosystems and how they affect the microbiome of Daphnia.
