Anne Baldino

Anne Baldino is a Ph.D. student in the lab of Dr. Tsvetan Bachvaroff at the Institute of Marine and Environmental Technology. Her research focuses on dinoflagellate genomes, specifically focusing on gene structure of commonly expressed protein-coding genes across species. She plans to integrate the bioinformatic work she does with environmental sampling of Baltimore's inner harbor to better understand how dinoflagellates interact with other microbial communities to enhance nutrient cycling. She received the University of Maryland Flagship Fellowship in 2023 and the Endeavor Fund for Innovative Science in 2025.
