I am working on the section of my marine biology career advice book about applying to graduate school. I have lots to say here from both my own experience and years of teaching this stuff, but I’d welcome your input on any or all of this if you’re willing.

Two coolers of fresh Lake Ontario yellow perch in the lab! My seniors will be working these up for capstone research projects. So grateful for good relationships with anglers and seafood processors that make these projects possible. 🐠 🧪

So, today I gave my first exam in class, and didn’t realize until I handed out the exam that I only printed half the pages, so half of the questions are missing 🤷♀️ How is your day going? #AcademicSky

Every scientist, long before they were a scientist, was a little kid who stood in front of a fish tank or stared up at the stars or turned over a rock to look at the bugs underneath and said “wow”. On the best days, working in science still feels like that.

Thanks to Lake Ontario (with help from Lakes Superior and Huron) we have had close to 8 FEET of snow since last Tuesday! Our barn and large greenhouse collapsed but the cabin is ok.
