The Medeiros lab in the Pacific Biosciences Research Center at the University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa is now open! Our research will focus on the ecology and evolutionary biology of infectious disease using the biological systems of Hawai‘i. Beyond advancing science directly, our lab aims to facilitate the access of under-represented native Hawaiian students to STEM fields. We achieve this by adopting culturing informed methods of conducting science. In addition, much of our research has direct implications toward developing sustainable practices that mitigate the risk of infectious disease for human and wildlife populations in Hawai‘i nei, and in parallel, work to preserve Hawai‘i’s native biodiversity, environment, cultural practices and livelihoods. We are deeply committed to public engagement, and strive to bridge gaps between the scientific community and the public through citizen science campaigns. If you share our goals, please consider joining or collaborating with us.
