Notes
of Interest |
|
Some
of my passions: I have been an aquatic ecologist/microbial ecologist for over
a decade studying streams, rivers, wetlands, and coastal marshes in both the
US and Canada and the bacterial communities that reside within them. I also enjoy just being out on the water.
A
fluorescent stain of some of the bacteria I have studied. Having fun with properties of Gram negative
bacteria!
I
also enjoy gardening, photography, and spending time with my family.
