 As a part of her research with quiescent and non-quiescent phase cultures, researchers were able to gain a greater understanding of the cells life cycle, structural components, and their reproductive abilities.In further studies, they were able to isolate the two cells, which gave them the ability to track these cells systems, gaining a greater understanding of the cells and its cycles.As part of her genomics research, she developed hyperspectral imaging to improve the signal-to-noise ratio of microarrays.
