What the facility does
Evolution, genetics, and microbiology.
Areas of expertise
We study genome evolution in real time, focusing on the evolution of antibiotic resistance in bacteria. By sequencing the genomes of bacterial populations evolved in the lab, we hope to understand when and why populations evolve at different rates and in different directions.
