I am recruiting a PhD student in microbial ecology for my lab at the University of Florida at the Ft. Lauderdale REC. My lab investigates the role of soil and plant-associated microorganisms in ecosystem functions, with an emphasis on biogeochemical cycles.

Join us at the GRC AEM from July 13-18! At $1,090 for the week this is a bang-for-the-buck! For $1,090 you get registration, single room housing, all meals (breakfast, lunch and dinner), and refreshments. No other conference can beat that! Apply today! No $ due at application. tinyurl.com/z34xaa9d

Reminder that you can apply for the GRC AEM even if you working under a travel freeze (like I am). Applying doesn't mean you have to pay anything, you are just putting your hat in and show you are interested. The more people apply, the easier it is for us to defend funds! www.grc.org/applied-and-...

Early-career environmental microbiologists make sure to apply early to both the GRC and GRS in Applied and Environmental Microbiology! We expect both of them fill up fairly quickly.

In this @theguardian.com column, @georgemonbiot.bsky.social perfectly summarises why carbon credits for soil are not a good idea. Yes, we need to protect soil carbon, and we may increase it through good soil management, but promising golden mountains is flawed. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...
