• Tested conditions for optimal induction and stabilization of equine induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs). • Independently conducted secondary immunofluorescence staining of Oct-4 and CDX2 genes in equine inner cell mass and bovine embryos; collected data using a fluorescence microscope. • Cultured and passaged equine fibroblast and Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cell lines in sterile conditions.

2013 - 2013
• Analyzed large metagenomic dataset of gut microbiota present in avian species from Papua New Guinea. • Calculated Shannon Indices and conducted Principal Component Analyses to compare gut bacterial diversity and composition, respectively, between sexes and among individuals of differing diet types. • Presented at the Society for Integrative and Comparative Biology National Conference, Austin, Texas, January 2014 — and — at the California Academy of Sciences, San Francisco, California, August 2013. Research Experience for Undergraduates Grant funded by the Robert T. Wallace Endowment for Undergraduate Research.

2013 - 2013
• Discovered interspecific differences in both genotoxic susceptibility and DNA repair capacity in coelomocytes of echinoderm species with varying lifespans and a lack of decline in DNA repair capacity with age (contrary to mammals). • Quantified DNA strand break levels via Fast Micromethod Assay following acute exposure to UV-C or hydrogen peroxide. • Presented at the Bermuda Institute of Ocean Sciences, St. George’s, Bermuda, November 2013. Research Experience for Undergraduates Grant funded by the National Science Foundation.

• Demonstrated a 25% improved yield of targeted DNA extraction through new method compared to standard company procedure, while maintaining near-100% removal of undesired drug markers. • Designed and constructed plasmids through subcloning. Detected presence and quantified amount remaining ampicillin marker by Southern blot and dot blot, respectively. • Presented at Novozymes, Inc., Davis, California, September 2012.
