In her research with undergraduates, Dr. Dahlquist follows an interdisciplinary approach to understanding gene regulatory networks that involves cutting-edge techniques in genomics, mathematical, and computational biology. This research crosses over into her teaching in such courses as Molecular Biology of the Genome, Biomathematical Modeling, Biological Databases, and Bioinformatics Laboratory. Dr. Dahlquist promotes and fosters an Open Science Ecosystem where the process and products of research are developed in the open, including open data, open source code, open access publishing, and open pedagogy. These practices support research integrity and reproducible research.
