Dr. Scott McCain
I am a postdoctoral fellow with Gene-Wei Li and Mick Follows at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. I am currently working on estimating rates using gene expression data in microbes. I primarily use a combination of in situ observations, mathematical modelling, and experiments with model bacteria. More broadly, I am interested in connecting processes at the level of gene expression to the ecology of microbes in complex communities.
