Next week we’ll have the visit of Dr. Steven Roberts as invited speaker within FIU’s “2015 Worlds Ahead Marine Sciences Seminar Series”. Dr. Roberts is an Associate Professor in the School of Aquatic and Fishery Sciences at the University of Washington (http://faculty.washington.edu/sr320/), where his research focuses on characterizing physiological responses of marine organisms to environmental change. In his seminar he will provide clues to answer the following question: “Does DNA methylation facilitate phenotypic plasticity in marine invertebrates?“.
We really think it does!!
The Chromevol group has many common interests with Dr. Roberts’ research goals! we really look forward to his seminar! The date is Thursday April 23rd at 12pm and the place is room MSB-105 at BBC Campus. The seminar will be followed by a “end-of-semester” BBQ, you’re all invited!
