Education: BS in Botany and Biochemistry, North Carolina State University
I am currently pursuing my Ph.D. in Botany in Edgar's lab.
I am using the imaging approaches developed in the Phytomorph project to quantify a root growth process as it develops over a few hours in recombinant inbred lines (RILs). The resulting QTL map has a time axis in addition to the typical genomic position and LOD score axes. I learned statistical genetics by attending the Summer Institute in Statistical Genetics in 2009.
