I hail from Los Angeles, CA. I earned my B.S. in computer science and applied mathematics with a minor in physics. I’ve come to Knoxville to seek a Ph.D. in computer science. My research area is computational biology. I will be focusing on visualization and developing tools to analyze data sets for biologists. My advisor […]

Craig Conner

I have been researching the Corazonin gene in Drosophila melanogaster, which encodes the corazonin neuropeptide.  My project has included comparing the gene structure and expression patterns in related species, predominantly the Housefly, Musca domestica. For your reading pleasure, I am including some links to some literature where you can learn more about Corazonin and Corazonin-expressing neruons, and some related useful web sites as well […]
