Will received his B.S. in Molecular and Cellular Biology as well as his Ph.D. in Physiological and Molecular Plant Biology from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. He joined ARS in 2015 as a Post Doc in the Plant Polymer research unit, studying the production of novel amylose-inclusion complexes. In 2018, he joined the Mycotoxin Prevention and Applied Microbiology research unit as a Post Doc, and later as a research scientist.
