Alex Anderson recieved his BScH from Wilfrid Laurier University in 2017, and began his foray into microbiology as a diagnostic laboratory technician at the Public Health Ontario Laboratories where he became fascinated with microbial cell surface structure and function. Alex is currently a Masters candidate in the lab of Dr. Joel Weadge, alongside ^^^Michael Suits^^^, at WLU where he studies the structure and function of CAZymes responsible for the biosynthesis, modification and export of cellulosic materials involved in biofilm formation in Gram-negative pathogens. His most recent work includes the structure of the cellulose phosphoethanolamine transferase BcsG, essential for extracellular matrix assembly in E.coli K-12 and S. enterica.
