Congratulations to Dr. Anna Kazarina!! The Lee Lab is very proud of you for successfully defending your dissertation and completing your PhD. Your hard work and dedication to your research is inspiring and we look forward to seeing how much you accomplish in your future research.

RT @AnnaKazarina2: I’m excited to invite you to the public portion of my PhD defense, taking place this Thursday, July 10th, at 11am (CDT)!….

Look at the Lee Lab undergrads go! Bryttan presented her research at the JCRC’s Award Banquet, the Undergraduate Research Symposium, and the Biology Undergraduate Research Forum! Will and Darcy both presented their research at the Biology Undergraduate Research Forum!

RT @VogtBrookeM: I’m pleased to share that our manuscript, “Plant host identity drives Andropogon gerardii rhizobiome assembly strategies u….

We obtained 679 MAGs from our field surveys and monolith experiments, providing insights into microbial distribution under different land legacies and precipitation levels.

Check out our paper! We hope our highly resolved soil-associated MAGs will be useful to the scientific community! @ScientificData @KStateArtSci @kstatebio #soil #microbiome.

RT @AnnaKazarina2: The 2nd project of my PhD work is now live. We showed strong associations of plant-derived metabolite trimethyllysine an….

Tanner passed her defense yesterday and is now officially Dr. Richie!! The Lee Lab is so very proud of you and all of your accomplishments. Tanner is a great mentor and friend to the lab and will be missed. The Lee Lab wishes you the best of luck on your next adventure!❤️👩‍🔬

Undergrad student Summer has been working on her own project. Her project focuses on pure culturing fungi from soil samples that originate from dry and wet soil environments. Her goal is to be able to get an idea of which fungi are more abundant in one environment over the other.

Lee Lab graduate student Tanner presented a poster at the Johnson Cancer Research Center Data Blitz last week. Tanner’s poster displayed her current research on limiting Klebsiella pneumoniae adherence to colon cells and how that reduces host inflammation and lowers cancer risk.

Lee Lab graduate student @MicrobeRich had a fantastic time at her first GRS and GRC conference where she presented her latest research on limiting microbial driven inflammation!

RT @AnnaKazarina2: #ISME19 come see my poster PS3.17.046 today (08/22)! Let’s talk about the new approach in building plant-oriented SymCom….

The Lee Lab is very proud of @AnnaKazarina2 for presenting her work at #ISME19 in South Africa! In this project, Anna takes one step closer to building a plant-oriented Synthetic Community. Be on the lookout for a preprint of this work next week!👀

PhD candidate @AnnaKazarina2 presented her talk at the One Health Microbiome Symposium at Penn State! Look out for her upcoming publication on the effects of microbial metabolites on plant-host growth! @KStateArtSci @kstatebio @KSUGradSchool

We are so proud of @MicrobeRich for pushing through and seeing her 2nd chapter to completion 💪!! Please go and check out her amazing work on Eubacterium rectale relieving gut epithelium ROS damage!.
