Grad Research Asst | Food Science

Specialization: Controlled Environment Agriculture

Overview

I am currently working in the Controlled Environment Plant Physiology Lab with Dr. Walters. My thesis project is focused on the optimization of environmental conditions for the production of Brassica greens in space. I am looking at the relationship between environmental stimuli and the resulting phytonutrient concentrations and biomass yield.
