To serve this purpose, she has developed her skills in histopathology, in situ hybridization techniques, and laser capture microdissection. The use of these techniques has helped to understand disease observed during fish health assessments conducted in the Great Lakes and Chesapeake Bay (including the Susquehanna and Potomac River drainage). Much of her work has focused on fish species used as indicators of environmental contamination, including smallmouth bass, brown bullhead catfish, white suckers, and yellow perch. She also uses PCR, Sanger sequencing, Nanostring technology, and RNA-Seq to help identify parasites or pathogens, for transcript abundance analyses, and de novo transcriptome development." } ],
