Julia A. Packer
I am an M. Sc. Student in the Biology Department at Dalhousie University, supervised by Alastair Simpson. I am interested in all things protist, with a deep interest in investigating eukaryotic cellular evolution and diversity. I am currently studying deep-phylogenetic relationships of novel protist lineages.
