Fast, Focussed, and Future Forward
The 2021 CBIOMES Annual Meeting provided a short, streamlined opportunity for members to refamiliarize themselves with progress over the past twelve months, learn in more depth about current activity, and hear and weigh ideas for new directions. Continue reading “Fast, Focussed, and Future Forward”
In the Mix
The Fuhrman Group uses ‘omics data to better understand microbial growth, interactions, and biogeographies. Recent research has been focused on evaluating a promising new approach to simultaneously determine the growth rates of many different kinds of microbes from the within-genome distributions of DNA extracted from mixed populations. Fuhrman Lab postdoc Jesse McNichol elaborates on a pair of recent papers reporting their progress. Continue reading “In the Mix”
