I am a Junior at BLHS, and I am most interested in biology, botany, plant hormones and plant epigentics.
My post high school goals include: In the future, I would like to go to college to double major in dance and kinesiology/physiology with an emphasis in exercise. Another pathway I am interested in is microbiology/ molecular genetics.
STEM courses I have taken: Honors Biology,Honors chemistry, Geometry, Algebra II, and Zoology. Currently enrolled in Physics, Pre-Calculus and Honors Scientific Research.
Current research overview: Currently, I'm exploring how plant hormones effect overall seed germination in plants. Gibberillic acid and Indole-3- Acetic acid are both known for their significant roles in regulating plants growth and development. Both hormones are known to interact with each other but their combined effects of seed germination remain relatively unexplored. By understanding the effects of these hormones further development of optimized seed germination could improve widespread agricultural practices.
