Genome assembly, speciation, behavioral genetics, computational science. Under the mentorship of Dr. Alan and Dr. Emily Lemmon in the Lemmon Lab at FSU, Hannah has been helping to develop a new genome assembly method. Current genome assembly methods are not efficient enough to assemble large, repetitive genomes such as the chorus frog genome, so a new method is needed. Her group's method uses selected, single-copy sequences to connect reads before the rest of the sequencing data is overlaid to form the assembly. Future directions include optimizing this process and testing their methods on actual data instead of simulated data. If this new genome assembly method works as predicted, large genomes will be able to be assembled overnight, instead of the current months-long process.
