Tampa/St. Petersburg, Florida Area

Researched the marine bacteria Thiomicrospira crunogena and studied deep-sea ecology. I became acquainted with lab techniques such as making culture media, culturing organisms, DNA isolation, performing site-directed mutagenesis on sets of genes. I regularly cleaned lab ware and also became acquainted with lab equipment. I also researched and did a bioinformatics study on methyl-accepting chemotaxis proteins within the genus Thiomicrospira. The lab participated in weekly lab discussions on scientific papers on microbial ecology and physiology, so current literature was reviewed often.
