Harrison graduated from Macquarie University, Australia, with a BABSc majoring in Human Biology and Creative Writing. He is currently an MS student in the Recombinant DNA Technology track at NYU GSAS. In his undergraduate studies, he obtained DNA isolation experience through researching cryptic speciation in Australian stingaree populations using phylogenetic analyses. In the lab, Harrison is interested in the microbial composition of the aerobiome that can be influenced by urban design characteristics and how this in turn affects human health. Currently, he is developing a novel DNA extraction protocol to gather metagenomic data from the aerobiome.
