Welcome

​We are a new lab (est. Jan. 2026) in the Department of Biological Sciences at the University of South Carolina, broadly interested in the ecology and evolution of phage-host interactions in changing environments. ​​

​

We primarily use experimental approaches to ask questions about how environmental context impacts these interactions in non-model marine systems, with a current focus on prophages (integrated viruses in bacterial genomes). Our questions span biological levels, ranging from the molecular to community scale.

​

Prospective trainee or collaboration inquiries are welcomed at any time.
