"Moisture modulates soil reservoirs of active DNA and RNA viruses" Soil is known to harbor viruses, but the majority are uncharacterized and their responses to environmental changes are unknown. Here, we used a multi-omics approach (metagenomics, metatranscriptomics and metaproteomics) to detect...

The soil microbiome performs many functions that are key to ecology, agriculture, and nutrient cycling. However, because of the complexity of this ecosystem we do not know the molecular details of the interactions between microbial species that lead to these important functions. Here, we use a...

Katherine joined the Sprunger Lab at the W. K. Kellogg Biological Station (part of Michigan State University) in January 2023. She came to KBS from Washington State University, where she earned her Ph.D. in soil science in 2022. Her research interests include agroecology with respect to how land...

Two factors that are well-known to influence soil microbiomes are the depth of the soil as well as the level of moisture. Previous works have demonstrated that climate change will increase the incidence of drought in soils, but it is unknown how fluctuations in moisture availability affect soil...

This project will improve current understanding of how viruses manipulate host environments. Use cutting edge, iterative proteomics and metabolomics tools in ex vivo primary human lung cultures that recapitulate the epithelium of the conducting airway and novel high throughput sample capture...
