I’m in San Francisco this week for the American Geophysical Union fall meeting. It’s mostly for earth and space scientists but as a NASA fellow studying atmospheric chemistry, I wanted to check it out. This meeting also has a few sessions on biogeochemistry which is what I’ll be studying during my postdoc at Johns Hopkins. In preparation for my big meeting, I’ve taken a few photos of the amazing view outside my room at the Courtyard Marriott, which is only 2 blocks from the Moscone center where the meeting is held. I’m sharing the room with two other girls–both are researchers in Scot T. Martin’s group at Harvard. Their Dreyfus postdoc (Amanda Mifflin) completed her Ph.D. with my advisor, Franz Geiger. I am also posting a few pics of the yummy fruit (purple fruit are figs, orange-colored fruit are kumquats) I picked up at the grocery store this afternoon. Gotta get some sustenance to attend all those talks and present my poster on Friday morning!
