Current Research

I'm currently working in the lab of Dr. Janelle Thompson (Course 1 faculty member) using the sea anemone Nematostella vectensis as a model system for studying host-microbe interactions within corals. I've also been doing some comparative genomics of the anemone microbial symbionts, sequenced using next-generation technologies.
