Profile

Alese is interested in microbial dynamics of human-mediated ecosystems. Using high-throughput sequencing, I research microbial composition of the human microbiome and the built environment as they relate to immunological biomarkers and lifestyle. I am currently working with the Shuar Life History Project in the Ecuadorian Amazon as well as the Institute of Ecology and Evolution (UO).
