The Teter lab studies the cell biology of intoxication with plant and bacterial toxins such as ricin, Shiga toxin, and cholera toxin. An interdisciplinary approach using methods in molecular microbiology, cell biology, and biophysics is used to elucidate the mechanism of toxin entry into the target cell. Please contact Dr. Teter at kteter@mail.ucf.edu. Dr. Teter, and his student Carly Bader, presented their STEM Research at the Fall 2010 Sculpture class, and some of the STEAM artifacts created by the students in the class are inspired by their research. His student, Carly Bader, also participated in the creation of a poster artifact (STEAM poster).
