Professor Dana is an Associate Professor at Yavapai College and teaches microbiology from the One Health perspective. She believes that all things are connected, and the health of one is affected by the health of another. This is especially true in a closed system.
She also has a research group of motivated community college students who are studying the presence of antibiotic resistance genes in the Arizona landscapes and how microbial growth changes in a low gravity environment and other stressful times.
