Sam Apodaca

Undergraduate/Technician

Sam Apodaca was a technician in the KGS lab. Previously, he was an undergraduate student in the school of Molecular Sciences at Arizona State University. In the KGS lab, Sam studied the evolution of drug resistance using barcoded yeast lineages. He defended his honors thesis entitled: “Quantifying the Evolution of Fluconazole Resistance in S. Cerevisiae Using Molecular Barcodes.” Sam is now a PhD student at New York University.
