Buck Hanson has been actively engaged with EMSL since starting his position at Los Alamos National Laboratory in 2021. His participation includes Exploratory Research, Large-Scale Research, and Facilities Integrating Collaborations for User Science (FICUS) projects, which have utilized a range of multiomics capabilities to characterize plant-microbe interactions—from metabolomics (nuclear magnetic resonance, liquid chromatography/gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, and isotope-ratio mass spectrometry) and isotope tracing of 13CO2 through plants into the rhizosphere, to microbial gene expression, to imaging (matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization, nanoscale secondary ion mass spectrometry, and X-ray commuted tomography).
