I am an electron microscopy specialist with a primary focus on plant ultrastructure and biological electron microscopy. My work centers on developing and applying sample preparation and imaging techniques to visualize plant cells, tissues, and organelles at high resolution. I also manage a microscopy facility and support collaborative research across plant science, cell biology, and imaging technology.
Recently, I have expanded my research to biological cross-sectional polishing scanning electron microscopy, or bioCP-SEM, to visualize intact plant–microbe–soil interfaces such as the rhizosphere. Through this work, I aim to connect classical plant electron microscopy with emerging approaches for imaging complex environmental biological samples.
