I recently graduated with my Ph.D. in Marine Biology and Ecology from the Rosenstiel School of Marine, Atmospheric, and Earth Science at the University of Miami. My research focuses on host-parasite interactions on coral reefs. In my previous work, I determined the host range of gnathiid isopods using DNA sequencing and investigated the contributions of parasites to trophic connectivity in coral reef ecosystems. My goal is to create a new model system for studying vector-borne diseases.
