Murray White

Murray is a PhD student in the MCDB Program. He is interested in how the arms race between phages and their bacterial hosts have resulted in phage defense and counter defense mechanisms. His area of research is focused on how prophage confer phage resistance to their bacterial hosts by encoding viral defense systems.

Murray earned his Bachelor of Biomedical Science (Hons.) from Monash University in Australia.
