Discovery NotesBelow a lonely tree outside of the Papadakis Integrated Science Building of the lovely Drexel University Quad, we searched for and found our enriched soil.

Approximately 2 inches in the topsoil, was where we collected the sample.


Twas a bright day for science and as always, a sunny day in the marvelous city of Philadelphia.

We would humbly like to say Go Steelers
and Go Birds!
Naming NotesI grew up outside of the great city of Philadelphia, PA. My partner, Prajval Sreenivas, grew up in the dreamy city of Pittsburgh, PA.

Naturally, through seconds of experimenting, the combination of the two cities, Philaburgh, just felt right.
