Austin Hendricks
PhD Student
My research focuses on using next generation sequencing techniques to examine beetle-fungus symbioses in lab-reared populations, as well as identifying new symbiont-host pairings in wild populations of anobiid beetles. Prior to coming to UNM, I worked as an Illumina sequencing technician at MIT's Bio MicroCenter, where I specialized in high throughput sample preparation. I received a B.S. from Northeastern University in Chemistry, and am passionate about advancing diversity in STEM fields. Joined Fall 2021.

Undergraduate Honors Thesis Student
I joined the Martinson lab in late 2021. I am interested in biology of microorganisms, especially bacteria and fungi. In the lab, I get to culture the five different species of Symbiotaphrina we are working with. When I am not studying, or in the lab, I enjoy doing sudoku puzzles and listening to music.
