I am very pleased to announce that I am the chairholder of a new Tier II Canada Research Chair in Applied Microbial Ecology. This means that I will receive 500 000$ over five years for my research on plant-microbe interactions.

These chairs are attributed to exceptional emerging scholars that show great promise for the advancement of their domain of research internationally. It is thus a great honour and privilege to be starting my professor position with such an investment.
