 I've finished up working for Erik and am headed off to a new job! The undergraduates, Paige Bippus and Sarah Shainker will be taking over most of the Gracilaria culturing that I've been doing. Thanks for everything! It's been fun!

I am actually in Florida right now, working with Dr. Bill Baker's lab at the University of South Florida. Dr. Baker and his students study the chemistry of marine organisms, such as seaweed, and much of their work is based on organisms from Antarctica. One of his PhD student, Jackie Fries, is helping me do some chemical analysis on my seaweed samples so we can determine the different chemical compounds in them. Ultimately, once we know the types of chemical compounds the seaweeds are producing, we can look for patterns to see if the chemistry is related to the seaweed type and/or where the seaweeds are originally from!

I have been hard at work analyzing data and trying to tell a clear story about my research.  I also just came back from DC where I interviewed for jobs through the Knauss Marine Policy Fellowship and starting in February I will be working with the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) and the Smithsonian as an Ocean Science Educator and Communications Specialist.  A lot of big words, I know, but it basically means I'm going to get to hear about all the cool science that NMFS and the National Ocean and Atmospheric Association (NOAA) are doing and then get to share that information in a fun way with everyone else!
