Morgan Collins

Vice President

Morgan has her PhD in microbiology, genetics, and immunology, with an emphasis on pregnancy hormones’ impact on the immune system. Her interest in science policy began after gaining a deeper understanding of reproductive healthcare in the United States, the only high-income country with a rising maternal mortality rate. Morgan is passionate about Science on the Ballot's mission because it's an opportunity to educate voters and candidates about the most important science policy issues in our state – and voters deserve to be informed about their candidates' view of these issues prior to casting their ballots.

Krystina is a biochemistry PhD candidate studying an enzyme in the global nitrogen cycle that is important for soil nitrogen levels which impact the growth and health of crops. She is currently the Secretary of Science on the Ballot – Michigan and hopes to work on water policy and environmental justice initiatives at the state level after graduation.
