<div dir="ltr"><div>UCR Microbiome Initiative members, </div><div>If you are not aware of the ExFAB biofoundry that is kicking off on campus, please visit their <a href="https://exfab.org/">website</a>. There are user proposals that can be submitted on a rolling basis, and fellowships for graduate students and postdocs - the first round of fellowship proposals are due tomorrow but there will be another call next quarter. The biofoundry will help users create new workflows to utilize automated technology for high throughput phenotyping, DNA extraction, and NGS library prep. </div><div><br></div><div>This is a pretty amazing resource to have on campus, thanks to Ian Wheeldon and Jason Staijch for leading this effort!</div><div><br></div><div><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr">Best,</div><div dir="ltr">Quinn S.
