As a Senior Lecturer, I do not have a formal Research Program. My interests when I find the time are in the area of Plant Root growth and Development.
Outreach and Extension Focus
Educating and consulting in area schools about plant biology
I have been giving guest Lectures at Cornell Botanic Gardens to the volunteers in the childhood Education Program, and Judy's day volunteers since 2014.
