Jessica Woolston Joins the Fray!
Scientist in the making and dog mother of two, Jessica Woolston joined ABNEL in the Fall semester of 2023. While living in Europe, Jess reached out to Dr. Abigail Koppes after reading her work. Showing both an interest in the gut-microbiome and the initiative to advance the field, she was readily welcomed aboard.
While still pending, Jess’ project is headed towards studying the relationship between bacteria and the onset of Alzheimer’s disease. Our lab eagerly awaits to see what she will accomplish!
