Hello everyone!
I’m an assistant prof at Virginia Tech studying viral and microbial diversity. Lately my group has been focusing on giant viruses, but we are also interested in other protist viruses, and the role of viral endogenization in host genome evolution.

Most recently we found endogenous giant viruses in the green alga C. reinhardtii!
