Glad to be Back

Hi everybody! It feels really good to be back and I hope to hit the ground running, so to speak. I have decided to do my project on the toxicity of pesticides on cyanobacterial species; in this case Nannochloropsis and Arthrospira aka Spirulina. Matt has already ordered the cultures, so hopefully things go smoothly while I try to grow my cyanobacteria. Since it may not work out, I may do a back up project concerning algae. I'm not sure what at this point, so cross your fingers for me! I look forward to seeing you all at orientation Friday. Here's to a great semester! :)
