Bio
I am a third year PhD student in the Hull lab studying the biology of benthic foraminifera. My core interests lie in the understudied aspects of foraminiferal life histories. I came into Yale with a background in life cycles and associated nuclear and genomic dynamics (Goetz et al., 2022), and through my PhD research, I seek to better understand other difficult, unanswered questions about the mechanisms behind poorly understood foraminiferal biology, including dormancy, through microscopy, genetics, and comparative transcriptomics.
