It’s 2016 and already it seems like the year is flying by.  Between grant writing, manuscript writing, data analysis, and the thousand other little things you find yourself doing, it can be difficult to find time for outreach.  As such, my 2016 New Year’s Resolution as a researcher is to solidify my online footprint to better disseminate my work.  This site seeks to manage citations, connect all those online professional site profiles, give updates on my day-to-day, and to provide insight into the microbial communities that I investigate.
