The Lindroth Lab welcomes a new member to the lab, Mark Zierden. Mark is joining the lab after completing a PhD in Bioinorganic chemistry at Temple University where he studied trafficking and function of iron and titanium in organisms. He was also the Department of Chemistry’s mass spectrometrist while at Temple.

Mark will be taking over lab manager duties as well as pursuing some of his own research interests. Mark is interested in how plant chemistry affects decomposition and nutrient cycling. In his free time he enjoys woodworking and kayaking.
