Why Is Caitilyn Allen Influential?
(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, Caitilyn Allen is an American plant pathologist, specializing in phytobacteriology . She is an internationally recognized expert on bacterial wilt and has received several awards for her work. Education and career Caitilyn Allen grew up in the USA's Midwest. She studied from 1975 to 1978 at Swarthmore College and then worked on a farm growing organic vegetables, but the venture was unprofitable. She studied for the academic year 1980–1981 at the University of Maine at Orono, where she graduated with a B.S. in botany. In 1987 she graduated with a Ph.D. in plant pathology from the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University. Her Ph.D. thesis is entitled Evolution of a gene for pathogenicity; endo-pectate lyase.
