Minnesota Mississippi Metagenome Project

The Minnesota Mississippi Metagenome Project, or M3P, aims to catalog the microbial biodiversity of the Mississippi River and how humans are impacting it

A new course, which sprang from an ambitious project to catalog the Mississippi River's microbes, puts students at the center of the research. Learn more about the Mississippi Metagenome Project.

"The Mississippi River gives us a unique opportunity to sample an environment that runs the length of Minnesota and goes through a lot of changes along the way."
