Dr. Delong discusses the use of metagenomics to understand microbial life in the Pacific Ocean.


Hosts: Marc Pelletier, Ph.D.Andre Nantel, Ph.D.


Guest: Ed Delong, Ph.D.


"This genomic information can now be rapidly and generically extracted from the genomes of co-occurring microbes in natural habitats, using standard genomic technologies. We are now exploring and applying these and related technologies, to better describe and exploit the genetic, biochemical, and metabolic potential that is contained in the natural microbial world." Dr. Ed Delong, MIT
