(University of Oregon, 2020)Behavioral change frequently accompanies ecological divergence. This study observed C. elegans and C. inopinatus behavior. It is already common knowledge that C. elegans are found in rotting plants all over the world whereas ...

(University of Oregon, 2019-09-18)Bacteria are a major component of global diversity and are intimately involved in most terrestrial biogeochemical processes. Despite their importance, little is known about the response of bacteria to human-induced ...
-
(University of Oregon, 2013-10-03)For my dissertation research, I used a model system of bacteria and bacteriophage to study patterns of genome evolution. I performed whole-genome sequencing of replicate populations to determine the genetic changes ...
-
(University of Oregon, 2024)Aggressive antibiotic treatment often fails to resolve chronic infections. Most antibiotics target fast-growing bacteria, however, pathogens like Pseudomonas aeruginosa grow slowly in chronic infection environments because ...
-
(University of Oregon, 2020-12-08)Microbes have been found to inhabit a myriad of natural and artificial environments on earth, many of which are chemically complex and physically anisotropic – such as wet soils, the oceans, or mammalian guts. In order ...
-
Animals are colonized by communities of microorganisms that influence the health and development of their host. However, the mechanisms of host colonization are still underexplored. To investigate this, previous work in ...
-
(University of Oregon, 2024-01-10)Microbial communities are integral to many ecosystem functions, including functions of interest to humans such as nutrient cycling and pathogenic infection. However, the influence of management intensity on microbial ...

Life History Responses to Variation in Bacterial Food Sources in the Nematode Caenorhabditis elegans (University of Oregon, 2019)Obtaining nutrients from the environment is an activity shared among many organisms. The effect of these nutrients on life history traits of organisms can vary depending on their composition or their source, though the ...

(University of Oregon, 2016-02-23)Microorganisms are critical to the functioning of terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems and may also play a role in the functioning of the atmosphere. However, little is known about the diversity and function of microorganisms ...
-
(University of Oregon, 2024)Plastic pollution is becoming a significant concern and has created a litany of ecological problems, many of which have adverse effects on human health. The nature of plastic materials ensure that they remain in the ...
-
(University of Oregon, 2017)The skin is a primary interface for human-microbe interaction. Most studies are concerned with determining what bacterial taxa inhabit the skin, rather than the absolute quantities of bacteria inhabiting environmentally ...
-
(University of Oregon, 2018-09-06)Variation in exposure to environmental microbial communities has been implicated in the etiology of allergies, asthma and other chronic and immune disorders. In particular, preliminary research suggests that exposure to a ...
-
(University of Oregon, 2020)Chemotaxis is the biochemical and cellular process by which bacteria sense particular molecules in their environment and adjust swimming behaviors accordingly. Chemotaxis and other motility alterations in response to ...
