Postdoctoral Research Associate
Affiliation: Living Earth Collaborative
I am a disease ecologist who studies how anthropogenic disturbances impact host-associated microbial communities and infectious disease transmission. As a Living Earth Collaborative Biodiversity Postdoctoral Fellow, I will be working with Drs. Rachel Penczykowski (WUSTL), Danielle Lee (SIUE), and Solny Adalsteinsson (Tyson Research Center) to explore plant microbiomes and fungal pathogen transmission across an urbanization gradient and to develop STEM projects with K-12 public schools in St. Louis.
