Who are we?
Our members consist of faculty, postdocs and graduate students, mainly from the Center for Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, but also from Molecular Biology and Geosciences. Our topics vary monthy and are fairly diverse, but all within the field of microbial ecology.
Who can join?
Members of the University of Oregon community are welcome to join in our discussions at 2pm on Mondays. Due to copyright laws, we are unable to extend this invitation to members outside the UofO community, but citations for the papers to be discussed are listed in the sidebar.
