Expertise

My lab has an ongoing project identifying and characterizing novel bacteriophages (phages).

Current research students and I are working to annotate the genomes of several novel Caulobacter phages, which involves interpreting and comparing the genome sequence information in order to learn more about phage function and evolution. We also continue to isolate and characterize additional new Caulobacter phages.
