Research

I will start my journey at OSU by investigating how pollutants impact gut microbiomes of vertebrates and the effects these pollutants have on gut microbiome health and behavior. Currently I am interested in learning about infectious diseases. Specifically, I am cultivating my bioinformatics and statistical skills in order to gain further insight on the behavior of bacteria, viruses, and parasites. I hope to apply this knowledge to the gut microbiome so that we make progressive advancements towards human and animal welfare.
