ALT Micro 731/MMI 901 Student Seminar. WEdnesday, September 15, 2021. 12:05pm (CT). 1520 MSB or Zoom. Aldo Arellano from the Coon Lab. Title = Diversity and function of microbes in the pitcher plant mosquito (Wyeomyia smithii). Ibrahim Zuniga Chaves from the Suen Lab. Title = Factoring socioeconomic status into human gut microbiome composition: relating health, diet, and food insecurity to microbial diversity.

I finally completed a dissertation chapter and submitted it for review!🙏
To any grad students who feel down because they haven't published, I'm a 6th year and this is my FIRST paper from my thesis.
There's nothing wrong with going slow & steady!

Don't miss @IbrahZC's presentation next week!
#MDTP Student Seminar begins next week!🎉
@aldoaarellano and @IbrahZC will kick off the semester.
We might hear about mosquitos and socioeconomics🤔; stay tuned for more info!

My first preprint related to my PhD work on the hibernation microbiome!
The #microbiome recycles urea nitrogen in hibernating squirrels, especially during #hibernation!

@EdnaChiang studies the relationship between hibernating squirrels and their gut microbiome to help inform future research about biomedical issues related to diet and nutrition – like hibernating astronauts!

Native Wisconsinite and @suenlab student Andrew Steinberger works with local dairy farmers to study how antibiotic use on farms impacts their prevalence of antibiotic resistance.
He plans to continue using microbiology to solve agricultural problems.

We had a great meeting with @repmarkpocan staffer Leslie Zelenko about the importance of robust, sustainable, and predictable science funding!
Thank you Rep Pocan for co-sponsoring the RISE Act and for your long-standing support of science!
