Cecelia Garcia obtained her B.Sc. in Biology from York College of Pennsylvania. She is currently working on her Biology PhD at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County under the supervision of Dr. Jeffrey Gardner.
Her work combines bioinformatics with biochemistry and microbial physiology to characterize glycoside hydrolases from the soil bacterium C. japonicus. Of particular interest are glycoside hydrolases capable of acting on small ɑ-diglucosides [1]. Cecelia has largely contributed to the functional characterization of C. japonicus GH37 trehalases [2] and is focusing on elucidating the physiology of C. japonicus strains adapted to novel alpha-diglucosides [3]. She has also contributed to developing systems for studying physiological responses to microcrystalline insoluble materials [in review].
