My goal would be to develop a strain that can maintain high anammox activity even when environmental conditions are not ideal.</description><generator>Hugo</generator><language>en</language><atom:link href="https://pages.htgaa.org/2026b/jack-scharf/week-01-hw-project-ideas/index.xml" rel="self" type="application/rss+xml"/></channel></rss>
