Assisted with several research projects while also independently conducting two projects that focused on virology, genetics and bioinformatics. My main project was to construct a RNA poty virus of barley. I learned how to use several lab machines as well as perform several biochemical procedures. Used biotechnical software to identify virus resistant genes and gene regions in the corn genome. In addition I grew and maintained Nicotiana benthamiana and helped maintain several corn fields.
