Technical/Support staff Cornell University
Current Position: Technician IV, Cornell Food Science, supervisor Gavin Sacks
Role in VitisGen: I coordinated the efforts of the Fruit Chemistry analysis center, taking in grapes from breeders and organizing the processing and testing that ensued.
“I gained a greater appreciation for the complex nature of wine chemistry and the challenges involved in all aspects of our work, from the breeding side to the analysis of proteins and other tricky measurements.”
“VitisGen was made up of a supportive network of scientists! It was a delight to be part of such an encouraging, welcoming team.”
