    About This Project

    We are studying the co-evolution of synthetic genetic circuits and their carrier host strains. The parasitic resource demand of the circuit impacts the fitness of the carrier cell. In turn, the evolutionary pressure on the carrier cells impact the genetic stability of the circuit. We are building a laboratory evolution platform with the capabilities for robust long-term culture maintenance and automated fossil record collection to study the evolution of this coupled system over time.
