Congratulations to EWU McNair Scholar Monique Tori Castellano\/s<\/a> <\/strong>for completing her McNair Summer Research Internship! She worked with mentor\u00a0Dr.\u00a0Ben Lundgren<\/a><\/strong><\/strong> on her summer 2024 research, “Janthinobacterium Livdum”<\/em>. Monique Tori’s <\/strong>research was presented August 15, 2024 at the McNair Summer Research Symposium<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Of her research, Monique explains:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This research aims to understand and identify the role of RpoN within the adaptability of Janthinobactierum and the overall properties of this unique bacteria. Furthermore, analyzing multiple quantitative and qualitative measures of of its resistance with antibiotics, growth conditions, and observing if  J.lividum can still grow and emit violacion even after use in production. Leading with this data we can make a hypothesis that janthinobacterium holds a key in understanding the bacteria\u2019s resistance to why this bacteria can be found globally.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Monique Tori Castellanos<\/strong> is a Mexican-American first generation student at Eastern Washington University.
