Four years ago I married this amazing man. Thanks for being by my side through the big leaps we take to achieve our dreams, but especially through the little trials and victories of every day life. You mean everything to me @c_fern7 .

A lot of the bacteria I work with can't grow in our normal atmosphere - oxygen is toxic to them. We manage this by using an anaerobic chamber with a gas mix that doesn't include oxygen, but a hydrogen nitrogen and carbon dioxide mixture. Anaerobic bacteria are really interesting to study in he context of human diseases. They are found in chronic wounds, at our mucosal surfaces, and have been heavily studied in the context of oral and dental health! Just one of the fun and unusual things in the daily life of a microbiologist! #lablife #charismaticmicrofauna #lifesciences #microbiology (at University of Minnesota)

I think I love New Orleans. (at Café Du Monde)

I've grown so fond of @mycopunk over the years. Here she's being hostess extraordinaire, serving toasted water bugs at this big themed potluck. @c_fern7 and I brought mimolette!
