Looking for #PhD opportunities in aquatic microbial ecology! Finishing my MS in freshwater microbial ecology by summer 2024 & have several years of undergraduate research experience. Interests: fresh & marine microbial #ecology, #eutrophication, viral ecology & ecosystem health

Proud mentor moment: my former undergraduate student @david_niknejad -now a masters student- was critical in the completion of my fourth dissertation chapter. This week, the tables turned and I was able lend logistical support for his thesis work! #fieldwork @UTKMicrobiology

While we have projects around the world, perhaps the most fun are in our back yard. Thanks to @JennDeBruyn @frwalker1960 for bringing us in and kudos to @david_niknejad for making it happen with the Watershed Association of the Tellico Reservoir.
