Project 2: Investigated algae-based biofuels and bioproducts using wastewater in the lab of Dr. Kim Ogden.This research was part of the Regional Algal Feedstock Testbed (RAFT) partnership, a DOE project. More information can be found here: http://uanews.org/story/energy-department-awards-ua-led-team-8m-to-research-algae-biofuelProject 1:Investigated the fate and (bio)remediation of nitro-based Insensitive Munition Compounds (IMC/IMX), particularly 5-nitro-2,4-dihydro-3H-1,2,4-triazol-3-one (NTO) in the lab of Dr. Jim Field and Dr. Reyes Sierra. Researched the molecular ecology of IMC/IMX-degrading microorganisms.This project is part of a Strategic Environmental Research and Development Program (SERDP) multidisciplinary project (ER-2221).

Minneapolis And St. Paul, Minnesota, Us

Investigated microbial enzymes involved in s-triazine (e.g., atrazine, melamine) metabolic pathways in the lab of Dr. Lawrence Wackett and in collaboration with Dr. Michael Sadowsky.Research focused on biocatalysis & biodegradation related to an enzyme-based biosensor for a food cotoxicant and the enzymatic removal of cyanuric acid from swimming pools.Co-inventor: provisional United States patent application filed for the enzyme biuret hydrolase and its role in cyanuric acid detection via the U of MN’s Office for Technology Commercialization. 2010.Lab websites: https://cbs.umn.edu/wackett-lab/homehttp://www.bti.umn.edu/faculty/biosadowsky.html
