Welcome! My name is Emily Driessen. I am an Assistant Professor at Western Michigan University in the Department of Biological Sciences and in the Mallinson Institute for Science Education. Previously, I worked at the University of Minnesota as a post-doctoral associate in the Lane research group to investigate how college biology instructors teach biology topics. I earned a Biology PhD from Auburn University while conducting research in the Ballen lab which focused on the impact of active learning strategies on student performance in undergraduate biology courses. My past educational experiences include earning a M.S. in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics from the University of Kentucky while researching in the Wilhelm lab as well as earning a B.S. in microbiology with a minor in chemistry from North Dakota State University while contributing to research in the McClean Lab.
