Sergei and Zihan attended the APS March meeting in Minneapolis and gave talks on recent work on microbial communities. It was also a chance to meet with lab alumni: Tong Wang and Akshit Goyal. We also made contacts and discussed potential collaborations with several experimental groups. Griffin Chure from Jonas Cremer’s group at Stanford will give a talk at our group meeting on 3/29 at 9:30am CT.
