Several of the researchers described above also work on genomics in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii NSF Chlamydomonas Genomics Project. A new project starting in the laboratory involves elucidating the concept of bacterial species and the distribution of bacterial ecotypes in the microbial mats found in the (hot springs of Yellowstone National Park.
