Research
Projects connecting microbiology, genomics, and community science.
Our research connects undergraduate learning with questions about the biology and applications of Delftia acidovorans.
Projects
Hands-on Microbiology
Students in MB 360 and LSC 170 investigate Delftia through laboratory work, spot-plate assays, and analysis of scientific publications.
Genomics and Bioinformatics
Explore Delftia sequences using BLAST and comparative genomics to investigate the organism’s biology and environmental capabilities.
Gold Recovery and E-Waste
Literature-based projects examine Delftia’s gold-biomineralizing abilities and their potential relevance to sustainable biotechnology.
Citizen Science and Communication
Community annotation and WikiEDU projects help make research about Delftia, including its environmental roles and occurrence in clinical reports, more accessible.
