In the last 20 years, science has developed a new classification group call the Archaea. These organisms live in some of the most inhospitable conditions on Earth. Kelley will introduce what causes these organisms to be grouped together.\u00a0 Genetics and\u00a0conditions of early organisms will be discussed. Kelley\u2019s emphasis is on a group that survives in extremely salty conditions and this group will be emphasized.<\/p>\n
Kelley Tuel is a M.S. Degree candidate in biology at Emporia State University.\u00a0 Her thesis is on the molecular genetics and high school laboratory application of Halobacterium sp. NRC-1, an extreme salt-loving microbe.\u00a0\u00a0The laboratory in which she has done her research at ESU isolated a previously undescribed mutant that has a novel gene that can move around.\u00a0 They named this mutant\u00a0KBT-1 (Kansas Biology Teacher).\u00a0 Kelley is a former high school biology\/AP biology\u00a0teacher here in the metro and is planning to return to\u00a0teaching when she graduates in May.<\/p>\n
