Wild-Type Domestication: Loss of Intrinsic Metabolic Traits Concealed by Culture in Rich Media - Microbial Ecology
Bacteria are typically isolated on rich media to maximise isolation success, removing them from their native evolutionary context. This eliminates selection pressures, enabling otherwise deleterious g...

Before starting my PhD, I completed my Master’s degree at Kennesaw State University, where I studied the micropredatory bacterium M. xanthus. I’m here for the science and look forward to learning from you all!
