Thank you, Max!

Hello, Bluesky!
I’m Ron, a second year Ph.D. Student at the University of Florida. I have a keen interest in #syntheticbiology, #controlsystems, and #biomanufacturing.
Outside of academics, my posse (shown below) and I love to be in the outdoors hiking, camping, and taking photos. 😎🧪
