Evaluating Strain-level Variation of Key Acidogenic Species in Dental Plaque Biofilms
The characterization of the dental plaque microbiome, using traditional 16S rDNA profiling strategies, illustrates both the strengths and the limitations of this method. The central limitation of the 16S rDNA methodology is the inability to decipher strain-level variation within a microbiome. Why...
Cataloguing the Gene Expression Patterns of Dental Plaque Biofilms: A Reference Dental Plaque Transcriptome
The RNA-Seq method has been widely adopted as an alternative to the use of DNA microarrays. In most contexts, the RNA-Seq method is implemented when a single reference organism is being studied. Our project endeavored to establish working methods to enable the generation of cDNA libraries that were...
Surrogate Methods for Profiling Species of the Oral and Gut Microbiome
We engaged in an effort focused on alleviating a substantial barrier facing the human microbiome research community. While powerful, the 16S rDNA gene is insufficiently divergent to allow discrimination of many species and essentially no strains present within communities. The increasing costs of...
The Mobile Lab Is Going to Sunny San Diego
Late one evening in January 2006, the mobile lab pulled into the parking lot at 9704 Medical Center Drive. It was such an exciting evening! Within a few days, we had all the lab supplies on it and began visiting students. The first school in the Washington Area was Patapsco Middle School in Howard...
The Hill School: Day 2
The day started early Tuesday with first period. Thirty eager students arrived on the bus to determine the results of the amplification of the DNA they extracted the day before. The PCR ran overnight, copying part of a conserved gene in plants, RuBisCo, that can be used to identify the...
The Hill School: Day 1
The day started early with reagent and lab preparation before we even left for school OR had coffee. We expected to do over 100 DNA Extractions as the first step in the DNA Barcoding. We arrived on campus as the first period was starting 鈥搘e didn鈥檛 have class until after...
The Mobile Laboratory Hits the Road
After a hiatus this summer, the Mobile Laboratory hit the road again today for a trip to Pottstown, Pennsylvania. Driving through the rolling hills of northern Maryland into southeastern Pennsylvania, it passed small towns and beautiful foliage. Tomorrow and Tuesday, we will be working...
Sequencing of high yield influenza reassortants at 涩里番
As part of the Influenza Genome Sequencing Project, 涩里番 will be sequencing a large number of high yield influenza reassortants created in the lab of Dr. Doris Bucher at New York Medical College. Dr. Bucher鈥檚 lab has prepared the type A H3N2 high yield reassortants (hyrs) for the influenza...
What Happened to Sorcerer II?!?!
The last time I wrote a Sorcerer II blog was in November when we set sail from Spain to cross the Atlantic Ocean. For all of you that have been worried that we have been at sea for 8 months, relax we made it!! Over the next few days I will update everyone on what has happened and the upcoming plans...

He has been a fixture in San Diego science for decades
Twenty years ago, President Bill Clinton announced completion of what was arguably one of the greatest advances of the modern era: the first draft sequence of the human genome.
The human genome is 99% decoded, the American geneticist Craig Venter announced two decades ago. What has the deciphering brought us since then?
As the science advances, policy-makers and regulators need to develop responses that reflect the latest developments and the diversity of approaches and applications.
