Victoria posing with the fancy deep biosphere water dialyzing system (Duane photobombing at the same time). This system helps concentrate viruses from ancient deep waters of the death valley's regional flow system. "Viromics" is a new field recognized by microbiologists. Scientists have labeled the deep biosphere viruses as "microbially dark matter".
