Responsible for researching the mutualistic interactions throughout the evolution of the bacterium, Desulfovibrio vulgaris, and the archaeon, Methanococcus maripaludis. By conducting a timeshift experiment, we look for genetic mutations that evolve due to developing a mutualistic relationship.https://sites.google.com/a/uw.edu/hillesland-lab/
