It was a busy week of field work measuring plant diversity in prairie restoration plots with different AMF treatments. Fortunately we had a stellar crew from my lab and Joanna Weremijewicz's lab @PlantsAndFungi. Special thanks to @flydrocarbon and @rovitoscience.
Yesterday we hosted 30 Chicago high school students for a campus tour @LoyolaChicago and piloted a teaching module developed by RETs in my lab involving legume-rhizobium interactions.

Teachers, are you looking for a great way to incorporate data generation and analysis, NGSS curriculum, and coding into your middle school science classroom next year?
