2025 - NEW Publication

We have a new publication in ASM Applied and Environmental Microbiology!

This was a fantastic team effort lead by a visiting J1 scholar from Brazil.

We have found that the fungus gardens of attine ants play host to a variety of killer yeasts and in the process discovered a new killer toxin!

We will post the publication link on the website soon - stay tuned.

(meanwhile, we have a link to the preprint below!)

I have a passion for undergraduate research and anything to do with virus-host interactions.

The Rowley Lab is currently engaged in several outreach projects focusing on antibiotic development and yeast evolution.
