Bio:
“As a molecular microbiologist, I’m broadly interested in both studying and engineering biological systems involving bacteria. Currently, I’m developing molecular tools for use in engineering symbionts of honey bees. The hope is that these tools will be beneficial both in basic science research and real-world applications, allowing for a more robust study of bee genetics and protection against pathogens. I’m also interested in studying the interaction between honey bees and their bacterial symbionts at a molecular scale.”
