Welcome to the Sullivan Lab (a.k.a. The Tucson Marine Phage Lab) at the University of Arizona | ||||||||||
In January 2008, I started a brand new lab in Life Sciences South (LSS203 and 207) as a member of the University of Arizona's Ecology and Evolutionary Biology department. I am actively recruiting graduate students and post-doctoral researchers; if you are interested in the projects described in these pages, please contact me at msbulli@email.arizona.edu. The lab will be focused in three primary research areas: Cyanophages, Roseophages, Sea of Cortez Project. Through the use of (meta)genomics, we query 'wild' viral populations to identify important hypotheses that can be evaluated using model-system approaches with appropriate cyanophage and/or roseophage isolates. |

 The marine cyanobacteria Prochlorococcus and Synechococcus, globally important primary producers. In spite of their small size, these cyanobacterial cells are numerically dominant over vast areas of the "desert oceans" and are significant contributors to global carbon cycling. These were some of the earliest "ecological microbes" sequenced by the DOE JGI, which led to...(find out more about my research) |
