The lab has been most fortunate to follow the leadership of Anna Jackson, who has been our Lab Manager since early 2024.

​Anna brings years of experience in molecular ecology across multiple institutions together with teaching and leadership experience through her MSc work and service in the Peace Corps. Anna was selected from an internationally competitive application pool and we look forward to enjoying a very productive and rewarding collaboration with her over the long term.

Anna's leadership is integral to the success of all of our work, and she has been particularly active in projects based at Yellowstone National Park, Fray Jorge National Park, and the development of our program in Molecular Parasitology.

You can find a free list of essential Lab Protocols that Anna curates for our site, Contract with Anna for your next project, or Train with her in the lab either on campus at Brown or through one of our international workshops like HelmCamp 2026!
