Then, she worked as a Research Assistant in the Wheat Quality and Chemistry Laboratory at CIMMYT. In Spring 2017, she joined Dr. Senay Simsek’s lab at North Dakota State University (NDSU) to pursue her graduate studies in Cereal Science. She worked on the fate of deoxynivalenol during wheat wet-milling, and characterization of the DON-free extracted starch and gluten and graduated with her M.S. degree in Fall 2018. In Spring 2019, she started her Ph.D., continuing under the advisement of Dr. Simsek at NDSU.
