Lindy Matthews' long-time project, continued after she left by Hailey Wilcox, was just accepted! This paper is huge! It shows:
Our new paper, led by undergraduate Amber Walters and in collaboration with Drs. Peter Newell, Angela Douglas, and Paul Schmidt, was published in Molecular Ecology.
We had great news, finding out that six lab members received CURA awards in 2019.
Our collaboration with U. Pennsylvania and Stanford just came out this week in PNAS! We showed we could manipulate the bacteria in flies evolving in outdoor environments, and the manipulations confirmed that variation in the microbiota changes the genetics of the host. Co-authors Rachel Hughes, Dallin Lowder, and Skyler Lemmon (undergraduates in the lab) were instrumental in manipulating and measuring the microbiota changes and effects. Check out their great work!
Shayna spent 8 weeks at XX working on the project: Cloning and Purification of regulatory protein PhoP of Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv.
We had a great time at Drosophila 2019, including poster presentations from Rachel, Tanner, Sarah, and Hailey: And the gut dinner.
The Chaston lab had a great time at the Utah Conference for Undergraduate Research, with awesome poster presentations from Hailey.
Amber(oral) and Rachel (poster) presented at Drosophila 2018. It was a great meeting with great talks and experiences!
Kyle got out in the community to teach how to extract DNA from strawberries. Did you know strawberries are a great source of DNA because they are tetraploid!
This summer, Rachel had the opportunity to spend 8 weeks in Philadelphia at UPENN running a microbiome and evolution project with our collaborator, Paul Schmidt. She brought back lots of bacteria, a box of flies, and some pretty cool data. Stay tuned!
