I am sad to leave behind a great community at Rice University, but I am pleased to start my new position as an Assistant Professor of Biology at Farmingdale State College - SUNY. Classes start this week and I am so excited to get my students engaged about Microbiology and Infectious Diseases!

So proud of my undergraduate mentee, Kelsey, who did a fantastic job presenting her poster on the microbiomes of corals from the Flower Garden Banks National Marine Sanctuary
