Project Title
Chloroplast Isolation from Marine Diatom Thalassiosira weissflogii
Presentation Link
My project was focused on the isolation of chloroplasts from TW diatoms. This is important to study because diatoms such as TW affix a large portion of the world’s carbon dioxide. Isolating the chloroplasts proved to be a challenge for many reasons and I am continuing the work this semester in the lab.
