About the site:
I developed geneticsalive.com as a companion website to cellsalive.com.
Everything a cell does is a direct result of the genetics of that cell,
whether it is a single-cell organism or part of a much larger organism.
Thus, understanding the cells requires an understanding of the basis of
all of their behaviors.
About the author:
I am a microbiologist studying microbial pathogenesis and the host
immune response. My studies have included work in many pathogens
including Rabies and Influenza viruses, Mycobacterium tuberculosis,
Francisella tularensis, and Salmonella enterica. I currently live just
outside of Philadelphia, PA, where I work as a postdoctoral fellow
researching antigen processing and presentation during rabies
infection.
