Dr. Hao Hu - postdoc, working on genetic control of abscission zone formation in Cenchrus and Sorghum, flowering time in Setaria, and transcriptomics of hydroxy fatty acid metabolism in Paysonia
Dr. Kathy Toll - postdoc, working on genetic control and photoperiod effects on flowering time in Setaria populations across North America
John Hodge - doctoral student, working on genetic control of branching in Setaria, using mapping populations, genetic mutants, and cool digital phenotyping programs that he creates
Nikee Shrestha - masters student, working on the the genetics of domestication in pearl millet (Cenchrus americanus)
Dr. Margarita Mauro-Herrera - postdoc and long-term collaborator on genetics of branching, height, and flowering time in Setaria. Now lab manager of a cancer research lab at the Oklahoma Medical research Foundation.
Dr. John Stewart - postdoc working on the Research Experience for Teachers program, especially on writing statistical explanations.  Now a researcher on an HHMI-funded study into the efficacy and outcomes of undergraduate research.
