Welcome!

With the start of the new academic year, we welcome two new members to the lab: Laura Elsberry joins us as a Ph.D. student, and Genevieve Bernatchez joins us as an Assistant Specialist. Laura recently completed her M.S. in marine biology at Cal State Fullerton, where she worked on seaweed physiology across tide-height and latitudinal gradients. Genevieve (“G”) most recently worked at the NOAA/NMFS lab in Milford, Connecticut, where she balanced field and lab work, including mastering a number of techniques for analyzing nutrients in seawater. G has a M.S. in Biology from Northeastern University, where she worked on consumptive and nonconsumptive effects of invasive green crabs in New England salt marshes. More information about both Laura and G can be found on the Lab page.
