I worked on the project titled "Evolution of endosymbiosis in prey - predator interactions". The project mainly involved investigating development of a endosymbiotic relationship between an amoeba and bacteria using experimental evolution. My roles and responsibilities were1. Using classical microbiology techniques to grow amoeba and bacteria. 2. Development of assays to test the relationship between the organisms. 3. Molecular biological techniques 4. Fluorescence microscopy… Show more I worked on the project titled "Evolution of endosymbiosis in prey - predator interactions".

This project was a part of my M.Sc studies. I got an experience of being in a global laboratory amongst diverse people of different backgrounds. This was a microbiology project which involved phenotypic and genotypic characterisation of bacteriophages of Bacillus subtilis carrying rearrangements in its prophage elements. The skills I acquired were mainly,1. Classical microbiology techniques like plating, CFU, growing bacteria and extracting bacteriophage. 2. Classical Virology… Show more This project was a part of my M.Sc studies. I got an experience of being in a global laboratory amongst diverse people of different backgrounds.
