Research summary
AI-generated

Michael P. Dzakovich works on plant science tools and methods, particularly hydroponic (soil-free, nutrient-solution based) growing systems and related lab protocols. Recent work centers on designing and validating 3D-printed hydroponics equipment (such as modular tower systems) for research and teaching, alongside experiments on plant growth traits like fresh/dry weight yield under different treatments and salinity conditions, using spinach as a model plant. This research combines plant biology with open-source hardware design and data sharing.
