Project Title: Diurnal and Nocturnal Microbial Concentrations in the Air

Mentors: Noah Fierer, Sarah Gering

Bio: Greetings, my name is Julissa Rubio Soto. I'm a first-generation student, a proud mother and wife, and quite inquisitive. I graduated from Aims Community College with an Associate's of Science and recently went back to pursue Radiology. I've always loved science and math but recently started to fall in love with research. Nonetheless, I haven't experienced the opportunity to participate in any research projects and thus I am very excited to be participating in the RECCS program. I can't wait to not only learn from my mentors but to dive into the full experience of scientific research.
