Research Mentor: Pruden Lab, Dr. Amy Pruden

Due to life’s circumstances, I have discovered my love of medicinal chemistry.  Throughout my year in PREP-VT, I have had the opportunity to work with Dr. Amy Pruden on a project using a laboratory-built system to replicate home plumbing and test mitigation strategies for opportunistic pathogens including Legionella pneumophila.
