"The Intrepid, Evacuating Foraminifera Who Escaped a Wildfire"

"Scientific diving success story "

​

As a member of the culturing team at UC-Davis, she participates in a team of researchers who capture living planktonic foraminifera and grow them in the lab under controlled conditions. The purpose of this work is to understand how these organisms react to certain environmental perturbations- specifically in terms of the chemical signatures recorded in their calcium carbonate tests.
