Current Position: Graduate Student (Fall 2020 - Present)
Previous Education: Bachelor of Science in General Biology & Writing: Professional Writing
Previous Relevant Work: My previous experience was mostly based around scientific editing, communication/design, and education. I came to Guam to gain a unique and rigorous research experience with Dr. Bentlage, and apply my previous experience to our outreach, education, and publishing.
Current Position: Graduate Student (2018-Present)
Previous Education: University of Delaware: Biology (BA) and Pre-Veterinary Medicine and Animal Biosciences
(BS) with Chemistry Minor
Previous Relevant Work: As a pre-veterinarian student, Justin studied the microbiome of ruminants. Later,
he interned with David Vaughn at MOTE Marine Laboratory where he learned to grow corals
using micro-fragmentation. Building on these experiences, Justin will deploy coral
fragments to study the succession of coral-associated microbes (the microbiome) across
an environmental gradient.
Current Position: Graduate Student (2021-2024)
Previous Education: Bachelor of Science in Oceanography from Humboldt State University
Previous Relevant Work: Volunteer and Environmental Specialist Intern with Reef Guardians Hawai’i, remote operated vehicle video (ROV) footage processor for Marine Applied Research and Exploration, Scientific Aide with the California Department of Fish and Wildlife.
Current Position: Graduate Student (2021-Present)
Previous Education: Bachelor of Science in Marine Science at the University of the South Pacific in Fiji Islands
Current Position: Graduate Student (Fall 2020 - Present)
Previous Education: Bachelor of Science from the University of Florida
Previous Relevant Work: I volunteered as an undergraduate research assistant at the Marine Invertebrate Zoology lab at the University of Florida's Natural History Museum. During my fourth year of undergrad, I also worked as a laboratory technician at the State of Florida studying invasive Giant African Land Snails and working on eradicating them.
Current Position: Graduate Student (2019-Present)
Previous Education: Bachelors of Science from Cornell University
Previous Relevant Work: I was an intern in the Ocean Acidification Program at Mote's International Center for Coral Reef Research & Restoration in the Florida Keys. This program focused on characterizing the physiological effects of changing ocean pH, as well as temperature and nutrient concentration, on marine organisms found within coral reef and coastal ecosystems. I participated in designing, setting up, and maintaining experiments within the outside ocean acidification experimental water system (OAFTERU) and gained experience in coral and marine organism husbandry. I also learned techniques for measuring and analyzing seawater carbonate chemistry, water quality, and animal physiology (photosynthesis/ respiration, calcification rates, photochemical efficiency
