<p class="MsoNormal"><b>Adapting an Evolutionary Model for Host-Microbe Interactions Studies<o:p></o:p></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thursday, February 3 at noon<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Dr. Kat Milligan-McClellan<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Host-microbe interactions can affect both the host and microbes. Dr. Milligan-McClellan adapted the evolutionary model organism, threespine stickleback fish, to examine the role the host genetic background plays in selecting for different
members of the microbiota and the ability of the microbiota to stimulate development of the host. In this talk, Dr. Kat will summarize the work of several of her mentees who used sequencing and microbial manipulation to characterize these interactions in different
populations of fish.<o:p></o:p></p>
