I really enjoyed presenting some of my PhD results, learning from the different panels, and talking with everyone at #MMEG2025 🧪🦠🧬 Thanks to everyone involved in the organisation and see you next year in Sheffield for MMEG2026!

First PhD sampling completed! I went to sample the blackout experiment with 20-year old bare fallow plots at the Henfaes Research Farm (Bangor University) Here, we want to study SOM/SOC and the cycling of “old persistent” carbon in the absence of new fresh plant input.
