Data & Science

I use NGS & multi-Omics techniques to characterize microbiome structure and functioning across a range of systems, using FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, & Reproducible) principles and open access tools

APPROACH

Data Repositories

My data is stored on NCBI's SRA, Data Dryad, HPCC, and GitHub. Bioprojects link to my published datasets.

Figures and Graphs

I store figures on FigShare and publish in open access journals, which are accessible and easily viewed or downloaded

Code

My code is publicly available on my GitHub page. Using R packages, I strive for my data & workflows to be FAIR

Dynamic Cross Site Surveys

I conduct collaborative research across large geographic areas, these Dynamic Cross Site Surveys (DYNAMXS) include both biotic data and soil measurements.

Fire Ecology Network in Cross-site Studies (FENiXS) and the

Critical Zone Integrative Microbial Ecology Activity (CZIMEA) are two large-scale studies to note.

I am developing a Web-based tool for determining which biostimulant approach to use, post-fire, as well as conducting research in collaboration with NRCS Scientists to integrate biotic metrics and edaphic factors across a range of soil surveys
