I successfully defended my PhD yesterday, and the feeling is still sinking in, while I try to get back to normal sleep schedule. Thank you @CFAES_OSU, @OSUPlantPath, my committee, and all those who believed in me. 🙏

In the endgame, almost to the finish line, I will be sharing my PhD story next Wednesday. DM if you want to know more about it.

Excited to share my work on the spatiotemporal activity of Xanthomonas translucens T3SS during barley infection. If you like colorful confocal microscopy images stop by Poster P2.1-068. Bacteria (yellow) targeting guard and mesophyll cells (cyan). #ICPP2023

Feeling grateful on being recognized with the prestigious C.C Allison Award, exactly 5 years since I was offered the position. 🙏 Thank you @OSUPlantPath faculty, mentors, and friends for the incredible honor!

To hard-working graduate students everywhere - you are accomplishing so much!

Incredibly indebted to my advisor, for honing my philosophies, rationale, and understanding of the world, as we see it, and what we often don’t. And @OSUPlantPath and the @osucfaes for recognizing my efforts and the prestigious, outstanding publication award!
