  vfberkeley.org Co-founded Vertical Farming at Berkeley as a registered student organization at UC Berkeley. As of Spring 2023, I spearhead a club body of twenty members across two technical divisions to pursue research/business development projects, enabled by over $50K USD of pre-seed. vfberkeley.org Co-founded Vertical Farming at Berkeley as a registered student organization at UC Berkeley.

  The Lewis Lab. Plant Gene Expression Center "We are interested in understanding how plants defend themselves against pathogens. We study the HopZ family of type III effector proteins from Pseudomonas syringae and the immune responses they elicit in plant hosts. We use many different techniques to investigate plant immunity, including genetics, molecular biology, biochemistry, cell biology, genomics, high-throughput screens, and next-generation sequencing. Our long-term goals are to understand the molecular mechanisms of plant immunity, and to identify strategies for durable resistance in plants. " Show less

  iGEM is an interscholastic club, each of which having multiple wet-lab and computational biology(compbio) experimental teams. Hallucinating Scaffolds project is a compbio team that is interested in designing scaffolds for enzymatic active sites that support catalytic activity (i.e., we want our designed proteins to be capable of the same catalytic function as the native enzyme). The designs will be generated computationally using Rosetta-based tools and eventually tested in the wet lab.
