We hope that September has been treating you well so far and that you're getting settled back into school! We wanted to share an exciting new opportunity for students to participate in a soil microbiome sequencing project in collaboration with the Department of Biology at Dalhousie. The project runs from October 2024 - April 2025 and no previous knowledge or experience is necessary.

If you're interested, please fill out the google form below and we'll be in contact shortly! Note: this is a pilot program which prevents us from being able to include a large number of students. We recommend filling out the form as soon as possible if you're at all interested!
