#MDTP Student Highlight: Kris Kieft Kristopher Kieft is a 5th year student in the The Anantharaman Lab who uses metagenomic sequencing data to study viruses in nature and how they impact microbial metabolism. #UWMadison #LoveVirology


Awesome article in our student newspaper The Badger Herald on our research on Sulfur Cycling in freshwater lakes spearheaded by Ph.D student Patricia Tran, PhD and her mentee, undergraduate researcher Samantha Bachand. badgerherald.com/news/2021/11/1… The Anantharaman Lab UW-Madison Department of Bacteriology

The Anantharaman lab is looking for a postdoc to work on developing and applying approaches to study the diversity, ecology, and/or evolution of viruses/phage in the environment. Please RT and spread the word. UW-Madison Department of Bacteriology UW–Madison CALS The Anantharaman Lab anantharamanlab.wisc.edu/2021/12/09/pos…

Interested in viruses/phage and metagenomics? Check out our new manuscript led by Kristopher Kieft describing vRhyme, a software to reconstruct viral genomes from metagenomes! The Anantharaman Lab Microbiology Doctoral Training Program UW-Madison Department of Bacteriology biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Our viral genome binner "vRhyme" is available on github. All feedback/comments welcome. Kristopher Kieft github.com/AnantharamanLa…


Want to bin virus genomes from metagenomes? Then #MDTP student Kristopher Kieft has the right tool for you! Congrats to Kris, current student @salamzader, and trainers Dr. Lindsay Kalan 🇨🇦 Karthik Anantharaman on their preprint! biorxiv.org/content/10.110… UW-Madison Department of Bacteriology The Anantharaman Lab @madmicrobiome

Our new review on the state of viral/phage genomics led by super-talented Ph.D student Kristopher Kieft is now out! We discuss conventions, biases, ideologies, and the future of virus genomics. The Anantharaman Lab UW-Madison Department of Bacteriology sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

If you're interested in viral genomics, this new review by #MDTP student Kristopher Kieft is for you! UW-Madison Department of Bacteriology The Anantharaman Lab

Our paper describing the software METABOLIC is out. We've got some great analyses and visualizations for microbial metabolism, pathways, metabolic interactions, and biogeochemical cycles from microbial genomes and metagenomes. The Anantharaman Lab UW-Madison Department of Bacteriology microbiomejournal.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.11…

Super excited to pass along this awesome work! Patricia Tran, PhD The Anantharaman Lab Do you like microbial genomes and bio geochemistry??? Look no further microbiomejournal.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.11…

METABOLIC is a novel scalable software by The Anantharaman Lab which allows for characterization of microbial metabolic predictions, exchanges & interactions, individual contributions to biogeochemical cycling & community-scale functional network construction microbiomejournal.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.11…

Our new paper describing PropagAtE - our software for prophage activity estimation is out! Use this to study the ecology of prophages in genomes/metagenomes in diverse ecosystems and microbiomes.

Interested in viromics or viruses in microbiomes? Our new manuscript describing the virus binner vRhyme is out! Led by The Anantharaman Lab PhD student Kristopher Kieft in collaboration with Dr. Lindsay Kalan 🇨🇦 @SalamMicrobes @TeemoDoScience UW-Madison Department of Bacteriology Microbiology Doctoral Training Program academic.oup.com/nar/advance-ar…

Proud advisor moment! Sad to see my first PhD student Kristopher Kieft leave. But onto a fantastic future career ahead! Congratulations Kris on a fabulous PhD. The The Anantharaman Lab was truly honored to have you be a part of our family and will miss you.


Honored to receive the ASM Early Career Award for Environmental Research. And more so, Super honored to be receiving this with Firestone Lab. UW-Madison Department of Bacteriology The Anantharaman Lab


Excited to showcase our new The Anantharaman Lab paper co-led by Chao (Zhichao) Zhou and Emily St. John focused on the microbial ecology of globally distributed deep sea hydrothermal vent chimneys. Super collaboration with Anna-L Reysenbach. biorxiv.org/content/10.110….

Congrats 🎉 to our student Patricia Tran, PhD for winning an #ISME18 best poster award! Woot woot. Trina McMahon 🌪 UW-Madison Department of Bacteriology The Anantharaman Lab
