June 2018 – October 2021
After previously majoring in Biochemistry & Genetics, I obtained my PhD in Genetics under the supervision of Dr Charles Robin, at the University of Melbourne. My research involved examining the biology of resistance in Drosophila melanogaster to a novel insecticide, and the potential for adaptation from standing variation. Here in the Gonzalez Lab, I plan to continue the study of adaptation in Drosophila, by focusing on the role transposable elements play in stress response.
