LBL recently announced the arrival of EcoPODs, a set of new growth chambers partially funded by m-CAFEs that will enable complex, in-depth experiments. EcoPODs are controlled environments that enable direct monitoring and manipulation of replicated plant-soil-microbe-atmosphere interactions over the complete plant life cycle. These “pilot-scale” ecosystems are designed to bridge the gap between small, lab-scale experiments that are not large enough to mimic the environment, and … [Read more...]
m-CAFEs student outreach
Researchers in the m-CAFEs SFA recently participated in an apprenticeship program through Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab Director's Apprenticeship Program, BLDAP). The students in the program, under mentorship from the m-CAFEs scientists, developed a series of websites investigating a range of research topics. Highlights related to m-CAFEs research include several student projects focused on EcoFABs, listed below: Jamari and Tenzin Precilla, Maya, and Kazy … [Read more...]
