| Here's the professional part of my homepage. I'm a Phd student and I'm doing my thesis at the " Institut de Biologie Structurale, Grenoble - France " in the " Laboratoire de Biophysique mol�culaire ". This laboratory has long been working on Archaea, and I'm especially working with Dr. Bruno Franzetti on " Proteolysis and stress response in halophilic archaea " . |
| My research project : |
| I'm working on halophilic Archaea. Halophilic archaea are found in very salty places like The Great Salt lake and the Dead Sea. They confer this lovely color u see in the picture of a salty lake taken in Australia. U can see in the tubes the media, and after centrifugation the pellet that contains the halophilic archaea with its red pigment. Very cool ??? don't u think???? With halophilic archaea, U have science in color. U have also another picture of halophilic archaea in microscopy. |
Well what's Archaea ???? Archaea are a major domain of life, they were recognised recently as procaryotes that are distinct from bacteria. Archaea thrive in extreme environements of temperature, pressure, pH. |
