This press release was originally published on https://today.ucsd.edu. As conceived by Charles Darwin in the 1800s, evolution is a slow, gradual process during which species adaptations are inherited incrementally over generations. However, today biologists can see how evolutionary changes unfold on much more accelerated timescales. Rather than the evocative plants and animals of the Galapagos […]
Look for our new paper out in Science, titled “Rapid bacteria-phage coevolution drives the emergence of multiscale networks.” This work is was done in collaboration with Justin Meyer and his group of researchers from the University of California in San Diego. The editor’s summary of this article reads: Real communities are characterized by complex interaction […]

Quantitative Biosciences Ph.D. students Marian Dominguez-Mirazo and Rogelio Rodriguez-Gonzalez have been awarded fellowships by Consejo Nacional de Ciencia y Tecnología (CONACYT), the Mexican National Council of Science and Technology, for their thesis research. These fellowships will provide Dominguez-Mirazo and Rodriguez-Gonzalez partial scholarships to continue their graduate research at Georgia Tech. “The nice part about [writing […]
Guanlin Li successfully defended his dissertation today, entitled “Optimization and control of virus-host systems.” Congratulations to the newest Ph.D. in the Georgia Tech School of Physics, Dr. Guanlin Li. To learn more about Guanlin, read his student feature.
Rogelio Rodriguez Gonzalez received the “Best Paper in Ecology and Evolution award” from the Georgia Institute of Technology, for his publication in mSystems.
Dr. Jacopo Marchi joined the Weitz Group where he’ll work to advance bacteriophage therapy research. He’s a recent graduate from the department of Physics at the Ecole Normale Superieure in Paris.
Rogelio Rodriguez Gonzalez passed his thesis proposal “Computational models to study phage therapy efficacy in multi-drug resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa infections,’’ and was officially admitted for his Ph.D. candidacy.
Rogelio Rodriguez Gonzalez’ recently published his paper entitled “Quantitative Models of Phage-Antibiotic Combination Therapy” in mSystems. Congratulations, Rogelio.
