Last Friday, Sean Campbell (undergraduate student volunteer at Chromevol) got his first shot at presenting in a scientific meeting! Sean presented preliminary results from the project “Epigenetic responses to nutrient loading the staghorn coral Acropora cervicornis“, on which he collaborates, at the FIU McNair Scholars Research Conference. This study is the result from fieldwork done during last summer in collaboration with Deron Burkepile’s lab at UC Santa Barbara. Our experiments with corals are consistently moving forward showing very interesting results, more info soon! Congrats Sean!!
