Current Members of the Belden Lab<\/strong><\/p>\n

Lisa Belden- PI<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Lisa has broad interests, but is focusing most of her current efforts on delving into the world of microbial symbionts.<\/p>\n

Education: BA University of Montana, PhD Oregon State University<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Emma Bradford- Postdoctoral research associate<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Emma is interested in host-parasite interactions.\u00a0 She is currently focusing on understanding the interplay between honey bees, their gut microbiome, and Nosema<\/em> parasites that colonize the gut.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Education: BS University of Stirling, MS University of Leeds, PhD University of Aberdeen<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Angie Estrada- PhD student<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Angie is interested in conservation and ecology.\u00a0 She is examining the seasonality of amphibian chytrid fungus infection in the tropics and the relationship between chytrid infection and the skin bacterial communities.\u00a0 Angie is a fellow in the Interfaces of Global Change graduate program<\/a>.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Korin Jones- PhD student<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Emma Bueren- PhD student<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"Emma is interested in within host interactions between microbes.\u00a0 She is currently exploring projects examining viral co-infections in honey bees and phage-bacteria interactions in the microbiome. Emma is a fellow in the Interfaces of Global Change graduate program<\/a>.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Casey Gregory- MS student<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"Casey is examining parasite-microbiome interactions in the honey bee gut microbiome.\u00a0 She is interested in how the microbiome and host immunity shape disease dynamics.<\/p>\n
