I am excited to share our framework for how to consider ethical dimensions in wastewater testing in support of public health! A continuous and cyclic process! Thank you to the amazing and interdisciplinary team. pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.10…

I anticipate recruiting two PhD students for Fall ’24 (or earlier) in the following areas: 1. Cyanobacterial blooms and their strain diversity and interactions with heterotrophic bacteria 2. Broad metagenomic data to track biodiversity in the #GreatLakes.

Congrats to Priyanka Ali on being awarded the Canham Scholarship!!! So proud of her and her work on wastewater treatment plant resiliency!

Unpacking party in the lab today! Happy to have a team in place this go around.

My friend, Dr. Kirin Furst, is recruiting 1-2 PhDs at George Mason University! Consider applying if you are looking to join a PhD program in environmental engineering. aeesp.org/jobs/3417

First time I get the cover of a magazine and it's in nature! Had this idea to illustrate the diversity captured by the MX Biobank across Mexico and brilliant designer Mauricio Guzman brought it to life inspired by indigenous Huichol art from near my home town. nature.com/nature/volumes…

Such an exciting opportunity! Howard University Associate Provost Kimberly Jones Makes History with Appointment to Environmental Protection Agency’s Science Advisory Board | The Dig at Howard University thedig.howard.edu/all-stories/ho…

I hope this is useful for other new PIs - definitely check out New PI Slack and find your people! nature.com/articles/d4158… Probably the closest I'll ever come to publishing in Nature 🤣

Never been more excited about a door opening! A-Andrew D. Jones, III., PhD Leanne M Gilbertson Nicole Rockey and I officially have interconnected labs.

Congratulations to author Sarah Philo and team - your article "Wastewater Surveillance for Bacterial Targets: Current Challenges and Future Goals" was our Top Downloaded paper from AppEnvMicro journal's January 2024 issue! 👏 doi.org/10.1128/aem.01… Sarah Philo Jeseth Delgado Vela
