We are excited to have Dr. Xinru Liu and Clara Guadalupe Herrera as our two latest SOILies. Welcome back!
Dr. Xinru Liu started her postdoctoral position at SOIL in January. Her project focuses on bioenergetic controls on microbial activity. Xinru previously spent an exchange year at SOIL during her PhD. We are excited to have you back, Xinru!
Clara Guadalupe Herrera joined soil as a research assistant in February after conducting her SIE and her Master project with us over the last year. Clara is leading our project on the impact of chemical additives on soil health and greenhouse gas fluxes. We are very grateful to have you, Clara.
