Department of Integrative Biology
Interests: My interests include topics in microbiology and microbial ecology. I'm currently researching the degradation of 1,4-dioxane, a potentially carcinogenic chemical, by microorganisms at a Colorado landfill. My undergraduate research was focused on microbial fuel cells, a technology to harvest electricity from microorganisms.
