Unlike mobile animals, sessile plants spend their lives in a fixed place and, being unable to move away, have to endure and withstand harsh conditions of their environment. To cope…
My interests are the control of gene expression and application of this knowledge to develop engineered strains for genetic control programs. Recent projects include developing male-only strains of the livestock…
My research program focuses on using engineering and systems approaches to understand fundamental biological processes in living organisms, particularly the model organism Caenorhabditis elegans. We apply tools that enable the…
Area(s) of Expertise To elucidate the molecular mechanism that underlies a class of novel selfish-genetic element found only in Tribolium. Due to the selfish behavior of these elements they have…
Area(s) of Expertise Dr. Koci is a virologist and immunologist and his research, teaching and outreach program is focused on host-pathogen interactions and understanding how the gut immune system tells…
