[00:00:00]My name is Jaclyn Adaskaveg.

[00:00:01]I am a postdoctoral researcher in the Plant Sciences Department, and my project focuses on breeding lima beans.

[00:00:11]At UC Davis, we are responsible for a lot of the plant science advancing plant science research, especially in California relevant crops.

[00:00:20]So a lot of the food, fruits and vegetables and nuts that you eat every day are being improved by people here at UC Davis.

[00:00:29]I became a plant scientist because it combined a lot of my interests in genetics and growing plants, and what really sparked it was that I'm able to work with crops that we eat every day.

[00:00:43]And we're working to make them better and help people.
