A sad return to Dundee where we said farewell to friend and former colleague Andrew Spiers who died unexpectedly and too young. He was a passionate microbial ecologist, committed to his students and he will be missed by everyone who met him.

That’s SoilCET meeting finished. Nice talks these last days. Thanks to IFPen for hosting me.
