Iowa City, Iowa Area

Working on the genome project for P. antipodarum. I have prepared samples for whole genome sequencing (DNA extraction, purifying, gel electrophoresis), used bioinformatic tools to filter paired-end reads and used SOAPdenovo to assemble the genome.

Taught the laboratory portion of an introductory biology course (Diversity of Form and Function).

Taught two classes for two semesters of the laboratory portion for 'Diversity of form and function'.Taught two classes for two semesters of a workshop potion for an upper level evolution class.

Neiman Lab

Used numerous techniques from genetics, molecular biology, organismal biology, and cytogenetics to evaluate the evolution and maintenance of sex and ploidy-level variation in a freshwater snail model system.
