It's out! Our review on "Quantitative principles of (microbial) metabolism shared across scales" is out in Nature Microbiology. Studies of metabolism often focus on one specific scale (enzyme, cell, organism, community) – yet they are connected. How can we bridge this gap?

Proud supervisor moment! ✨ I got to watch Anna present her honours research this weekend. I've been lucky enough to supervise her for 2.5 years and have watched her grow as a scientist and problem solver. Next up for both of us is the annual Ocean Science Meeting next week!
