Over the summer, the Widhalm laboratory members were busy presenting their research across the country. Graduate student Thiti Suttiyut presented his work on shikonin metabolism and helped organize the phytochemical section at Botany 2022 (Botanical Society of America) in Anchorage, Alaska from July 24th – 27th. Graduate student George Meyer presented his work on juglone…Read more about Widhalm Laboratory Members Present at Summer Research Conferences[Read More]
George Meyer, PhD student in Dr. Josh Widhalm’s laboratory, received a USDA-NIFA predoctoral fellowship award. George will study the metabolic mechanisms evolved by the black walnut tree to resist the phytotoxic effects of its produced allelochemical juglone. George’s proposal is titled “Investigation of metabolic mechanisms underlying juglone resistance.”
