Hai Nguyen

Schaller lab

Hai is from Kien Giang, a major rice-producing province in southwestern Vietnam. During his B.Sc., Hai worked in Prof. Nguyen Phuong Thao lab at Vietnam National University (HCM City), where he became interested in cytokinin metabolic genes. After graduating, Hai began his MSc studies at Trent University under the supervision of Prof. Neil Emery. Using plant molecular techniques, Hai investigated how phytohormones regulate metal uptake in algae. At Dartmouth, Hai is a member of Schaller's lab where he studies the role of Type-B Cytokinin Response Regulators in plant growth and development. When not working, he likes traveling with his parents, rollerblading, playing League of Legends with friends and going to the gym.
