I recently moved my lab to Purdue University and am looking for graduate students. We are working at the interface of population genomics, quantitative genetics and functional genomics to understand how plants adapt to extreme environments. Reach out if you would like to discuss potential projects.

Sent out 480 leaf tissue samples today for stable isotope analysis to study the effects of 100 years of global change on plants in the Guadalupe Mountains!

The world lost a hero today. She was a voice for the voiceless, a passionate conservationist, a pioneer for women in STEM, and one of my greatest role models. She inspired me to do what I do, and I will continue to work in celebration of her legacy. RIP Dr. Jane Goodall 💚🌱🐵

Excited to share what I've been working on with the science community! Starting to get my PhD papers out as I get closer to graduating, and looking into next steps in my career. If anyone has any postdoc ideas, please reach out! 🙂🌱
New preprint from our lab - how miniaturized library prep drives down costs for target capture sequencing with minimal impact on recovery. Led by @madiraibullock.bsky.social and with two undergrad coauthors!

Genomic analysis of population structure is important to the conservation of plant species of concern. A limitation of using genetic information in conservation is the cost of obtaining large datasets...

Texas Tech featured our research led by @madiraibullock.bsky.social in a video "Echos of Guadalupe"
My favorite part is 15 minutes in when a current MS student, Mara Hosaka, describes how field experiences as an undergrad convinced her to go to graduate school.
@ttu.edu made it possible!

"This is like a botanical time machine."
Texas Tech researchers traveled to the Guadalupe Mountains National Park to collect plant specimens and continue work in the same place as another Tech professor and his student in the 1970s.

I somehow convinced these crazy kids to follow me into the desert AGAIN 😆 In September, we returned to the Guadalupe Mountains National Park to complete the final collection trip of my dissertation. I'm so grateful for this amazing team and what we've accomplished. #WomenInSTEM #IAmABotanist
