​I am a PhD candidate and a USDA NIFA Predoctoral Fellow in Anne Leonard's Lab at the University of Nevada, Reno where I study the impacts of agricultural chemicals on pollinator health. My work examines the effects of these chemicals at multiple scales, from neurons and microbiomes to plant-pollinator interactions.

Can consuming agricultural chemicals alter insects' ability to smell?

Do agricultural chemicals change the bee and floral microbiome?
