The prospect of finding large amounts of liquid water in the subsurface of Mars is a game-changer. Here's a nice BBC article I contributed to, describing why it would be so cool. #SubsurfaceForLifewww.bbc.com/future/artic...

Less than one week left to register for the Geobiology GRC in Galveston, TX, Jan 14-19, 2024, and the GRS for early career folks the weekend beforehand! Deadline is Dec 16 for the GRS and Dec 17 for the GRC. Join us! And let us know if funding prevents your attendence. www.grc.org/geobiology-c...
We have an amazing lineup of speakers for the Geobiology Gordon Research Conference, Jan 14-19, 2024. Please join us, and round out the scientific program by contributing your best hot-off-the-presses work in geobiology (broadly defined). www.grc.org/geobiology-c...
Excited to share our latest preprint that examines how heterotrophic microbes compete for carbon. We explore how the chemical complexity of carbon substrates shapes microbial interactions and the remineralization of organic matter. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... #microsky #geoscience #AcademicSky

We're out on the continental slope off Viriginia on the RV Savannah measuring ***in situ*** aerobic methane oxidation rates with amazing science and ship crews. Cancelled cruise due to staff shortages? Hurricanes? Shorthanded from covid? No problem - we've got it all in check. #NSF #NSFChemOc
