## Resource

In this episode, we dive into the wonders of the depths of Earth's oceans and the reaches of empty space to explore the role that microorganisms play in life everywhere with Dr. Nagissa Mahmoudi, a specialist in Geomicrobiology and Assistant Professor at McGill in the School of Environment and at Trottier Space Institute. Dr. Mahmoudi received her bachelor of science in integrative biology at the University of Toronto and her PhD in Environmental Geochemistry at McMaster University and has since had an incredibly successful career in geomicrobiology academia, with over a decade of attention-grabbing publications under her belt.
