First, Co-first authorship
Currently rolling Six+ papers (including two papers about in vitro pollutants degradation by metagenomic/metatranscriptomic enzymes, one paper identifying defluorinating microorganisms and enzymes, one critical review regarding pollutants biodegradation, one community study of defluorinating enrichment culture, one analytical method for contaminants, one meta-omics analysis of environmental samples, and one perspective paper in the field of contaminants biotransformation), we will try to submit as many as possible in the year 2023, come back and check this later!
