About Marcus de Goffau
Marcus de Goffau has a history of making fun out of microbiome fields that attempt to characterize low/medium microbial biomass niches. Many of these articles should only be read out of historical curiosity as many of them have failed to realize they are merely/mostly describing contamination resulting in nonsense that can be likened to reporting blue whales in the Himalayas or African elephants in Antarctica.
