What brought our Ambassadors into the hidden world of the microbiome? How did they become interested in biology? What excites them about their research? In this NMDC Snapshots series, I talk more about my professional journey in science! Check it out.
Our 2024 Ambassadors study it all - from marine nematode and coral microbiomes, honeybee microbiomes, and soil microbiomes to the gut microbiomes of migratory birds. Read more about them in our series #NMDCsnapshots
