Many congratulations to McKenna Turrill, who has received an Undergraduate Research Fellowship from the American Society of Microbiology! McKenna is mentored by Nina Wale and will be working on a project focuses on the evolutionary role of pigment production in the bacterium Spirobacillus cienkowskii, which we often call “scarlet” in the lab based on its distinctive coloration.
