New paper on bacteria and clays during shrimp decay

Nora Corthésy published her first article in the Swiss Journal of Palaeontology this summer. The project was conducted with the invaluable help of Camille Thomas from the University of Bern, along with Farid Saleh, Allison Daley, and Jonathan Antcliffe. The paper explores how different clays influence bacterial community composition during shrimp decay and how this affects tissue preservation. Check it out!
