Abigail Hatfield earned her B.S. in Environmental and Natural Resources from Clemson University in December of 2019. During her time as an undergraduate for the university she participated in research studies as an intern with the Baruch Institute of Coastal Ecology and Forestry Science. These projects largely focused on metadata management and water quality issues related to precursors of disinfectant by-product formation in water supplies around Georgetown, SC. During her final undergraduate year at Clemson University she joined the lab of Dr. Alex Chow, who was working on black carbon studies and investigating disinfectant by-product formation contamination in water supplies for the EPA. In December of 2020, she joined the CHG as a Research Technician for Dr. Lela Lackey, working in her lab on interrogating the mechanics of alternative splicing in RNA.<\/p>\n
Research<\/strong><\/h2>\nAbigail works as a research technician in Dr. Lela Lackey\u2019s lab, coordinating projects that come through the lab as they are directed. She also performs the experiments and oversees the lab space as the primary lab manager for the Lackey laboratory. Primarily, she seeks to help develop and refine new methods as a part of the Lackey laboratory\u2019s efforts to better understand RNA structure, splicing, post-transcriptional regulation, variants, and introns. The alternative splicing of intronic elements in premature mRNA\u2019s are thought to contribute to the occurrence of disease-associated variants, so understanding their structure and function is important when discussing how these variants arise.<\/p>\n
