Sylvia Min Arnold
Sylvia graduated with a B.S. in Biology from the University of Maryland, Baltimore County in 2017 where she worked in Dr. Erin Green's lab for two years. During her time there, she worked on characterizing Set5, a yeast histone methyltransferase. After graduating, she joined the Rolfes lab at Georgetown University and is currently working on understanding the yeast transcription factor Grf10 and its role in virulence of Candida albicans. In her spare time, she enjoys spending time with her friends and family, baking, and trying new foods!
Congratulations on the successful defense of your Ph.D. dissertation (April 13, 2023)!
