Cystic Fibrosis Rapid Response Project. I am currently studying Microbial dynamics contained within the Cystic Fibrosis Lung via Metagenome, Metatranscriptome, Metabalome, and Virome analysis. Concurrently, I am assisting with bacteriophage therapy research. This entails isolating, classifying, and purifying bacteriophages in an effort to combat pathogens present in Cystic Fibrosis patient’s lungs.
