A lab that accurately identifies pathogenic fungi by their morphology and genes.

The Bioresource Management Lab studies how to accurately identify molds and yeasts while managing strains of pathogenic fungi. As part of strain management, the lab observes the morphology of pathogenic fungi, performs phylogenetic analysis, and examines differences within the same species. It works on methods to rapidly identify species, both from cultured fungi and from uncultured samples.
