There are diverse areas of study across CIHMID’s member labs, but our PIs are unified in their commitment to science. CIHMID will periodically shine a spotlight on an individual lab to highlight the people behind the work. These are their stories.   Dr. Tory Hendry Assistant Professor, Department of Microbiology CIHMID URE Director CIHMID MFF […]

Lucas studies how populations and communities are shaped by interacting ecological and evolutionary dynamics that play out across space. Given the conceptual breadth of questions that interest him, Lucas uses a range of approaches (e.g., theory, experiments, population genomics) and systems (e.g., insect host–parasitoid, microbial[...]

We focus our research efforts on discovery and molecular characterization of bacterial factors involved in bacterial-plant interactions, with particular interests in bacterial signaling systems and small non-coding RNAs. Another area of research is the development of new management strategies for bacterial pathogens. We use a[...]

Josh’s interest in fungal biology started while earning a BS in Microbiology at the University of Minnesota where he did research on the human fungal pathogens Cryptococcus neoformans and Blastomyces dermatitidis in the Nielsen lab at the University of Minnesota. Josh went on to pursue a Ph.D. in[...]

The Hay lab uses methods from microbial ecology, physiology, genomics, and genetics to understand how human activities affect microbes in diverse environmental settings. For instance, we study how handling of milk collection kits affects the microbiome of pumped human milk. Students will use genomics to[...]
