Jennifer Jorve, PhD studentCo-advisor: Chris Harley Research interests: climate change effects on marine flora and fauna, influence of habitat-forming species on associated communities, causes and consequences of morphological variability in macroalgae, and the function of variability in macroalgal life histories |
|
 |
Kyle Demes, PhD StudentResearch interests: Functional morphology, ecophysiology, and evolution of seaweeds, causes and consequences of calcification in macroalgae, and selective pressures for programmed vs. responsive morphogenesis and physiology |
|
 |
Rebecca Guenther, MSc StudentResearch interests: Ecophysiology of seaweeds, especially calcified coralline algae, in response to environmental stress and climate change |
|
 |
Kathryn Fisher, Undergraduate researcherMajors: Botany and Geology Research interests: Growth and calcification of coralline algae, mechanisms and biochemical pathways of carbonate deposition, effects of environmental conditions on cell wall mineralogy and algal growth, ecological consequences of calcification and role of biogenic carbonates in geologic carbon cycle |
|
 |
Daniel Crawford, Undergraduate researcherMajors: Engineering physics Research interests: Biomechanical properties of filamentous algae, effect of cell wall composition on algal material properties |
|
 |
Kevin Murphy, Undergraduate researcherMajors: Visual Arts and Construction Research interests: Preservation of seaweeds for classroom demonstrations, infiltrating kelps with glycerine and embedding corallines in resin |
|
 |
Now accepting student applicationsI'm looking for bright, creative students who are inspired by seaweeds and want to understand how life "works." Applications from students with NSERC or NSF fellowships are especially welcome. To discuss possibilities of joining the lab, send me an email. |
