Introductory Post

Yes, a boring title, but that’s exactly what this is. I am Alex Alexiev, second year biological sciences major. I’ve been thinking about a microbiology major for the past year or so, and this lab seems like a step in the right direction. I love aquatic systems and I think microbes are awesome, so I am extremely excited to research the two. Who knows what results the data will yield, but at the very least, it should be interesting.

I graduated with my PhD at the University of Colorado, Boulder and have a Microbiology BS from University of California, Davis. Currently, I'm a postdoctoral researcher at Oregon State University. My interest lies in discovering the emergent properties of how host-associated microbial communities respond to disturbances or perturbations to host health. View all posts by aalexiev
