Jensen Hayter

5Mar

I am a PhD candidate in my third year at Texas A&M University. I have an undergraduate degree in microbiology from Brigham Young University.

The central theme of my work is the investigation of how specific abiotic factors, particularly temperature and moisture availability, affect the phenology of key pests and pathogens. Currently, I am working with collaborators in forensic entomology to develop simulation models used to study how different thermal landscape scenarios could impact blow fly development and the implications this has in forensic investigations. These models port easily to agriculture where I am interested in applying them to study arthropod vectors of plant pathogens.
