Pledge ExtensionHello My Wonderful Backers!
I am grateful to announce I was able to get an extra week to raise donations for my research. 
I do need the help of my backers, please share the link to my site on Facebook and personally to others. The money Donations I am raising past the goal will go towards fully paying for eDNA sequencing. I am so excited to see the results and share them with you all.
Another announcement: Today I am starting my morphology training at Dr. Allison Fitzgerald's lab at NJCU. 
Everything is coming together very well, Thank You all for helping me get this far and showing your support. Enjoy the lab notes, comment on them, I'd like to hear from you.

About This Project

Assessing oyster restoration using morphological records and next-generation sequencing

College of Staten Island

Human development of New York and other large cities has led to disrupted urban ecology, including the decimation of once widespread native oysters. Oyster restoration is important for defending against storms, keeping the water clean, and sustaining fisheries and ecosystems. Our study will monitor oyster restoration at Soundview Park, Bronx, using both traditional surveys and cutting edge environmental DNA (eDNA) techniques.
