Jessie wins poster award at FRMS

Congratulations to our collaborator Jessie Romero here at CU Denver, who won a poster award at this year’s Front Range Microbiome Symposium (FRMS) for her work on uncovering potential 1,4-dioxane mechanisms in a local bioremediation facility. Jessie’s use of shotgun metagenomics to uncover unique candidate degradation enzymes is a great demonstration of detailed hypothesis generation from high-throughput sequencing technology.
