To start off -

I'm Jessica Lumian, a nearly-graduated PhD student at UC Davis. My PhD will be in microbiology, focusing on metagenomics of Antarctic cyanobacteria. As a postdoc, I'm excited to work with the Common Fund Data Ecosystem data sets, especially using the CFDE Portal to find data sets. I don't tweet much, but I'm on twitter at: twitter.com/jessicalumian

Hi there! I'm Amanda Charbonneau, and I manage the CFDE. My PhD is in Genetics, but I've worked in a wide variety of science things, and have been teaching bioinformatics skills for about 10 years. I'm occasionally on twitter at https://twitter.com/procrastinomics and my sciencey website is https://acharbonneau.github.io/

Please feel free to ask me all your data questions!
