A trip into the lab...

July 1st, 2009

Late this morning, I had the opportunity to visit the University of Oregon Institute of Molecular Biology. It was fascinating chatting with professor Karen Guillemin and her students about their studies of communication between bacteria and their hosts. I also had a chance to talk with professor Judith Eisen, Kate Woronowicz, an intern with the UO Summer Program for Undergraduate Research, and Kate's mentor, Kristin Alligood.

Below, check out some photos and a quick, informal video. (Be sure to turn the volume up all the way on your computer before watching the video. It's pretty quiet.)
