Intern Spotlight - Daniel Hayden

INTERN SPOTLIGHT

Hello! My name is Daniel Hayden.

I am interning this summer at the University of Wisconsin-Madison in the department of Plant Pathology. I will be conducting a community-based participatory research project with the Oneida Nation. Specifically, looking at how soil microbes are affected by different agricultural methods when cultivating Oneida White Corn.

I am a member of the Comanche Nation and I am also Muscogee Creek, Alabama-Qussarte, and Pawnee.

I recently graduated with a B.S. in Plant Biology at the University of Oklahoma. I will continue my summer project at UW-Madison into my PhD thesis the fall of 2019.
