Wonderful, interactive and productive trip to @YellowstoneNPS after ELM workshop in Bozeman last week. Lots of good discussions. Thanks to #DaveMogk at #MONTMSU for lots of insights on the Geology and @HeveranChelsea and @ProfCJHernandez for co-organizing

Great Engineered Living Materials workshop last week. Thanks to all participants from ~15 Universities, 20 companies, and 4 governmental agencies or labs. Thanks to @HeveranChelsea and @ProfCJHernandez for co-organizing and the @BiofilmFirst for meeting logistics, etc. #ELM

Oh ... and we had some fun with collaborators as well. #SridharViamajala @UToledo

So proud of graduate students Adrienne Arnold, Breuklyn Opp, @JessicabearWood, and Charles Holcomb for their poster presentations at AlgalBBB in Waikiloa Hawaii last week. #Algae @BiofilmFirst @montanastate

We used ultra-long-read Nanopore sequencing to determine a gapless, 13 chromosome, telomere-to-telomere complete genome sequence of highly productive Chlorella sp. SLA-04 plus plastids. sciencedirect.com/science/ar…. thank you @WiedenheftLab for your hard work and #DOEBETO for support

CoVID-19 quarantine the Montana-way; a lot more trout to catch & release @montanastate @BiofilmFirst @montanastatecoe

Beautiful art and science exhibit until end of November at the Bozeman Public Library. Go see in person if you can (I went there again today), otherwise see pictures and researchartproject.com/ thank you @SchaibleGeorge and @montanastate students, faculty and staff.

Last night I was reminded why being @montanastate and @Center4Biofilm is amazing inside and outside ... consider joining us as PhD student, postdoc, visiting or undergraduate researcher

Activity-based metagenomes provide insight into conversions of recalcitrant carbon to methane. Congrats @GCACTAATTGAGAAC @HannahDoris12 @FieldsOMicrobes #HeidiSmith @montanastate @Center4Biofilm nature.com/articles/s41396-0…
