Blog coming soon
This blog will be used for several purposes, including:
- explaining methods (computational and experimental) we use in the lab, in depth
- distilling new results for a broad audience
- sharing thoughts on lab culture
- celebrating milestones
- other content inappropriate for twitter
Hold tight for updates. In the meantime, you can read an old blog post describing the first microbiome ‘experiment’ I did, these tips for succeeding in graduate school (written in 2015, sporadically updated), and my twitter account.
