Date: Oct 13, 2014. Julia Goodrich: Conducting a microbiome study

Julia Goodrich is a PhD student in the lab of Dr. Ruth Ley in the Department of Molecular Biology and Genetics and the Department of Microbiology at Cornell University.

Human microbiome research is an actively developing area of inquiry, with ramifications for our lifestyles, our interactions with microbes, and how we treat disease. Bacterial and archaeal 16S rRNA gene sequence data from complex microbial communities present statistical and computational challenges. She will present some of the standard techniques currently used to characterize microbial communities.
