Assistant Professor
Montana State University
Dr. Ulrich is an Assistant Professor in the Ecology Department at Montana State University examining plant physiological responses to and interactions with their environments in forest, agricultural, and grassland ecosystems. Dr. Ulrich received her PhD from Oregon State University, applying a diverse suite of tools and approaches to understand plant physiological responses to environmental stress across multiple spatial and temporal scales in coffee, ponderosa pine, and Douglas-fir. As a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Los Alamos National Laboratory, she explored plant-microbe interactions and how soil microbes influence plant physiological responses to drought. In her spare time, you can find Dr. Ulrich mountain biking, telemark skiing, trail running with her dog, and learning to fly fish.
