Ecology Center Seminar with Dr. Noah Fierer
Conference/Seminar
The Ecology Center is excited to announce our first speaker of the Spring '26 semester: Dr. Noah Fierer from the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology
University of Colorado at Boulder.
Dr. Fierer will be presenting two seminars. Please note that the Wednesday seminar will now take place at 12:30 PM in ENGR 101, while the Thursday seminar will remain in BNR 102 at 4 PM.
Wednesday, 1/21: "Never invited to the feast: The ecology of oligotrophic soil bacteria"
Thursday, 1/22: "What 'macro'-bial ecologists can learn from microbial ecologists (and vice versa)"
About Dr. Fierer:
I am a microbial ecologist, and my research group focuses on microbes living in a range of environments, including those bacteria and fungi living inside our homes, in soil, on plants, and in the atmosphere. We use various approaches, including DNA sequencing and high-throughput cultivation, to explore the diversity and structure of microbial communities, build a trait-based understanding of microbial life, and examine how microorganisms influence the health of ecosystems, plants, and animals (including humans).
