We are proud to announce that Sam Shafer, Sid Bush, Julia Terrell, and Jake Osborne are all recipients of competitive 2018-2019 Wentz Research Grants from OSU. Congratulations to Sam, Sid, Julia, and Jake, and we're looking forward to great research during their Wentz tenure!

 

We have produced a video in collaboration with Rich Losick of Harvard University to illustrate the microfluidic platform upon which much of our B. subtilis research is based. The Journal of Visualized Experiments was created to provide peer-reviewed protocols in concert with professionally produced videos that illustrate complex scientific methods across a number of disciplines.

We are happy to announce that Chris Hamm, Sam Shafer, Kate Smith, and Sarah Winburn have joined the Cabeen lab for the Spring 2018 semester, joining our existing group of outstanding student researchers. Welcome aboard!

 

We are pleased to announce new research that was recently published by Dr. Cabeen in the open-access journal PLoS Genetics. This publication forms the basis for future work using microfluidic technology to observe the stress responses of Bacillus subtilis cells when subjected to different stress conditions.
