Welcome
Welcome to the Lynne Research Lab webpage.
My lab is housed in the third floor (room 340) of the Life Science Building at Sam Houston State University. I have a wide variety of research interests and train undergraduate and graduate students. My current research interests involve antimicrobial resistance and virulence plasmids of Salmonella enterica, identifying novel antibiotic compounds , and understanding the bacterial basis of human decomposition. To learn more about research conducted in my lab, please visit the Research page.
