Mary is the lab manager for the Ruth Welti lab. She holds a B.S. degree from Michigan State University. She analyzes samples received at the Kansas Lipidomics Research Center (as quickly as possible - all things considered!), along with keeping the triple quads happy, working with the students, and trying to keep it all organized.
She worked in Dr. Edward Cantino's lab as an undergraduate, with the water mold Blastocladiella. A move to Kansas State University brought her to Dr. Fred Schwenk's lab, working with fungal pathogens and soybean tissue culture. Taking a break from research science, she lived in Minneapolis, MN, to study dance. Returning to KSU, Mary joined Ruth's membrane polar lipid lab studies. She has also worked with Dr. Jim Funderburg in Dr. Gary Conrad's lab looking at corneal proteoglycans, and as lab manager for Dr. Finlay MacRitchie in the Department of Grain Science and Industry, working with HPLC analysis of wheat proteins.
