After two years, she transferred along with the lab to Scripps Institution of Oceanography to finish her PhD degree. Carla's work focuses on the study of ultraviolet screening products produced by cyanobacteria. Currently, she is interested in the signaling and biosynthesis involved in the production of scytonemin, an ultraviolet light absorbing molecule produced by many cyanobacteria.
