Dialogue

Telling the Microbiome Story

Dr. Carolee Bull, Head of the Department of Plant Pathology and Environmental Microbiology and Interim Director of the Penn State Microbiome Center; Joyce Sakamoto, Research Associate, Entomology; Cynthia White, Media Artist, Research Associate, ADRI

This presentation and discussion will highlight how these researchers began, as well as the process by which they continue collaborations on a project called Interspecies Microbial Migrations, a documentary filmdriven research inquiry investigating the pathways in which microbes move from animals to humans. They will discuss topics from initial project design, to the inherent ethical and procedural considerations involved, along with the basic challenges of engaging in these collaborations.
