We investigate the genetic regulation and physiology of cyanobacteria. Our research is focused in the identification of regulatory networks involving FUR proteins and the formation of biofilms.
In recent years, the Willamette River has become prone to blooms of cyanobacteria, more commonly known as “blue-green” algae.
Harmful algal blooms are preceded by a predictable and quantifiable shift in the oceanic microbiome www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Thank you!!
Una bacteria se 'come' una botella de plástico y, dentro de su estructura, la célula fermenta los residuos como si fueran cerveza y los convierte en paracetamol. Por primera vez una investigación logra usar microbios vivos para fabricar medicamentos social.elpais.com/fmnlp13
Thanks, Khaled!
Thank you!
Happy to announce that our work on #biofilm formation by the #cyanobacterium Anabaena is available in New Phytologist.
