New paper from Eisen Lab – on ” The Genome Encyclopedia of Spacecraft Associated Microbes (GESAM)” project March 13, 2023

New data report paper out from my lab and others. Basically this is a report of genome sequences and some other measures such as MLADIMALDI-TOF) of bacteria isolated by NASA from some of their spacecraft (before they were sent to space). See “Draft Genome Sequences of Spacecraft-Associated Microbes Isolated from Six NASA Missions” https://journals.asm.org/do […]

New preprint out from my lab and others about environmental monitoring for SARS-CoV-2 in schools and in part about how difficult this is November 18, 2021

New preprint out on from the Eisen Lab and others. This is from a collaboration between David Coil, Heather Bischel, Karen Shapiro, Randi Pechacek, Roque G. Guerrero, Minji Kim, and Rogelio Zuniga-Montanez (first author) at University of California, Davis. It is about environmental monitoring for SARS-CoV-2 in schools and, well, in part about how difficul […]
