Home mentor's research interests
Lorraine Olendzenski – Microbiology, Evolution, Origins of Life

Looking at mitochondrial targeted genes in C. elegans still expressed during anoxic conditions.

Ana Estevez – Neurobiology

Performing genome microarrays on C. elegans exposed to anoxia (no oxygen) and hypoxia (low oxygen). She is interested in looking at the genes that are up-regulated and down-regulated during these stressful conditions to determine which ones play a role in enhancing organismal survival.
