Project Details
Description
In this project we develop microfluidic chips that serve as growth habitats for soil microbes. We study the effect of small-scale physical structure and spatial chemical heterogeneity on behavior and carbon sequestration of microbes, where special focuses are on soil fungi and soil bacteria.
