Research in our lab focuses on the following seven broad areas. (1) reconstructing the eukaryotic tree of life and dating the major lineage splits
(2) phylogeny and evolution of the algae with an emphasis on the rhodophytes
(3) plastid endosymbiosis and endosymbiotic gene transfer
(4) high-throughput algal genomics (both EST and complete genome sequencing)
(5) evolution and molecular ecology of the thermoacidophilic Cyanidiales
(6) origin and evolution of introns with an emphasis on ribozymes
(7) management and extraction of scientific information
Our tools of research include molecular biology, biochemistry, genomics, and bioinformatics. |
