Stacy: hard at work!

Dr. Sotka and I have begun analyzing a massive data set to trace the invasive history of Gracilaria vermiculophylla, meaning we are trying to follow the trail of this species from its native range in the Northwest Pacific (Japan, Russia, Korea and China) as it has spread along all major coastlines in North America and Europe.  There are roughly 2500 specimens from over 65 sites!  And, we have genotyped all these samples at 12 different markers.  2500 multiplied by 12 is a lot!!  But, it is very exciting to finally get to play with data after over a year of generating this … this, does, however, mean that I will be spending days anchored to my desk.  Luckily my computer screen is quite large so it helps when playing with huge Excel spreadsheets!
