Graduate Student | Environmental and Forest Sciences

I am a master’s student in the plant ecophysiology lab run Dr. Soo-Hyung Kim’s lab within the School of Environmental and Forestry Science (SEFS). I am researching how microbes influence plant productivity and resilience to environmental stresses. Specifically, I am looking at how bacterial endophytes impact the growth of poplar trees under drought. To address this question, I am using machine learning with plant physiological and morphological data.
