Dr. Declan Schroeder

The Schroeder lab applies molecular biology tools in the areas of virology, biodiversity, pathology, and genomics, including the use of genome annotation and genomic technologies to study key biological processes. Their research addresses fundamental research questions in both the aquatic and terrestrial environments. In the area of food security, they are looking specifically at the impact of:

• Viral pathogens on honey bee health
• Viral pathogens on swine and cattle health
• Virus or phage therapy on animal, fish, and protists disease outcomes
