Off-road traning for Toyota Hilux

Recently, some members from our group and other group joined a off-road training for the 4WD pickup Toyota Hilux.  The training was organized and oriented to off-road beginners with little or no experience. We tried different sites including forest and agricultural trails, as well as hillside situations.

Denise visited us

Dr. Denise Akob and her family visited us from March 18 to April 7. Many lab members took this chance to talk about the collaborating projects with her. During her stay, Denise gave a geomicrobiology course for the graduate school student and also a talk about her recent research achievements during the GRK Brainstorming, entitled 'Organic Composition and Microbiology of Produced Waters from Pennsylvania Shale Gas Wells'.
