Where To Find Me At the American Society for Microbiology

Join me at the ASM Press Bookstore for a chat about the things this afternoon and grab signed copies of Microcosm!

If you're at ASM, I just want to let you know I'll be at the ASM Press Bookstore from 1 pm to 2 pm on Wednesday. The bookstore is on the far right end of the lobby as you're standing in front of the convention center. If you want to talk about the things I'll be discussing this afternoon at 5:30 pm, come by. Also, ASM Press has signed copies of Microcosm for sale. See you there!
