Culturing these microbes does, however, offer great insight into their function and contribution to the ecosystem as a whole. In my lab, we specialize in culture of microbes from the human gut, and we have developed a bioreactor platform (dubbed \u2018Robogut\u2019) to facilitate this. In this talk, I will provide some vignettes from my lab on the use of the Robogut in projects that span basic and translational research, including new work to uncover the gut microbiomes of Amerindians from the remote Venezuelan Amazon.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/healthsciences\/wp-content\/uploads\/Image-representing-my-work.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\" wp-image-4365 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/healthsciences\/wp-content\/uploads\/Image-representing-my-work.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"986\" height=\"645\" srcset=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/healthsciences\/wp-content\/uploads\/Image-representing-my-work.jpg 1183w, https:\/\/carleton.ca\/healthsciences\/wp-content\/uploads\/Image-representing-my-work-240x157.jpg 240w, https:\/\/carleton.ca\/healthsciences\/wp-content\/uploads\/Image-representing-my-work-400x262.jpg 400w, https:\/\/carleton.ca\/healthsciences\/wp-content\/uploads\/Image-representing-my-work-160x105.jpg 160w, https:\/\/carleton.ca\/healthsciences\/wp-content\/uploads\/Image-representing-my-work-768x502.jpg 768w, https:\/\/carleton.ca\/healthsciences\/wp-content\/uploads\/Image-representing-my-work-360x236.jpg 360w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 986px) 100vw, 986px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Presenter:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/healthsciences\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_0989-scaled.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-4361\" src=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/healthsciences\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_0989-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"168\" height=\"224\" srcset=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/healthsciences\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_0989-scaled.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/carleton.ca\/healthsciences\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_0989-240x320.jpg 240w, https:\/\/carleton.ca\/healthsciences\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_0989-400x533.jpg 400w, https:\/\/carleton.ca\/healthsciences\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_0989-160x213.jpg 160w, https:\/\/carleton.ca\/healthsciences\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_0989-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/carleton.ca\/healthsciences\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_0989-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/carleton.ca\/healthsciences\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_0989-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/carleton.ca\/healthsciences\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_0989-360x480.jpg 360w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 168px) 100vw, 168px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Dr. Emma Allen-Vercoe<br \/>\nProfessor and Canada Research Chair<br \/>\nDepartment of Molecular and Cellular Biology<br \/>\nUniversity of Guelph<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/healthsciences\/wp-content\/uploads\/Image-representing-my-work.jpg\">\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","meta":{"_relevanssi_hide_post":"","_relevanssi_hide_content":"","_relevanssi_pin_for_all":"","_relevanssi_pin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_unpin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_include_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_exclude_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_no_append":"","_relevanssi_related_not_related":"","_relevanssi_related_posts":"","_relevanssi_noindex_reason":"","_mi_skip_tracking":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_active":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_note":"","_exactmetrics_sitenote_category":0,"_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"daevent-type":[48],"event-audience":[],"event-featured":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.2 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>2021-22 Health Sciences Seminar Series - Dr. Emma Allen-Vercoe - Events - Health Sciences<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"The Department of Health Sciences is delighted to host the next seminar in our series. &nbsp;
