Biography

Lauren Lui is a research scientist in the Environmental Genomics and Systems Biology Division at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. She studies how microbial communities participate in biogeochemical element cycling and how they respond to environmental pressures, such as climate change. She is developing computational and experimental methods to help better interrogate and quantify microbial community members (bacteria, archaea, and viruses) to more accurately model microbial population dynamics. Specifically, she is developing methods to improve long-read metagenomics sequencing and assembly, and uses methylation data afforded by nanopore sequencing to link mobile genetic elements (viruses, plasmids, etc.) with their hosts.
