He works with the grad students and post docs in and out of the field, collecting and identifying insects including pests and pollinators, conducting ELISAs, setting up experiments, recording and compiling data, and other general work needed by the graduate students. Jordan has learned a lot about research and the politics of scientific theory from his experience in the lab, and has enjoyed every day since joining the McCornack Lab.
