Lisa Johnson has selected our article for group discussion - "Cryptic CH4 cycling in the sulfate–methane transition of marine sediments apparently mediated by ANME-1 archaea" by Beulig et al in ISME this year. The article can be found here.
We will meet to discuss the recent Hillmann et al. paper "Evaluating the Information Content of Shallow Shotgun Metagenomics" today, in STC from 12-1 pm. The paper can be read here.
Do you have a great idea?
Want to know if it is patentable?
Would you like to commercialize it but don’t know how?
Are you aware of UW’s Intellectual Property Policy?
Are you interested in creating a Start-Up company?
Did you know that UW has a Commercialization Office?
Want to avoid the common Intellectual Property pitfalls that many researchers face?
Please attend the seminar “UW, Intellectual Property & You” on Tuesday January 22, 2019 and we’ll discuss all of the above questions plus more.
