    Activities and Societies: Designated Emphasis in Biotechnoloy

    National Science Foundation GRFP fellow - AAUW dissertation year fellow

    I investigated the mechanism of intron-mediated enhancement of gene expression in Arabidopsis with Dr. Alan Rose. Key findings include the observation that introns can stimulate expression even in the absence of a core promoter. The goal of this project was to elucidate the mechanism of intron-mediated enhancement so that we can better utilize introns to maximize transgene expression for a variety of applications…

Key findings include the observation that introns can stimulate expression even in the absence of a core promoter. The goal of this project was to elucidate the mechanism of intron-mediated enhancement so that we can better utilize introns to maximize transgene expression for a variety of applications from basic research to crop improvement to plant-based pharmaceuticals.
