Bacteria Research Gets Lift from Jess Hay Award
Doctoral student Konrad Mueller has received support to advance his research in molecular and cell biology through the Jess Hay Endowment for Chancellor's Graduate Student Research Fellowships. The $10,000 fellowship from the UT System will support Mueller's investigations into the mechanisms by which bacteria simultaneously modulate their functions to interact with other organisms. The research could provide insight into concerted behavior similarly observed in many pathogenic bacteria when initiating infection and disease. read more
