Research
Our work investigates the molecular mechanisms by which choanoflagellates, the closest living relatives of animals, interact with their microbial world. We are studying how choanoflagellates recognize and respond to bacteria and viruses in order to discover mechanisms of choanoflagellate immunity, and gain insight into the evolution of eukaryotic and animal immune pathways.
