    About This Project

    Walruses, Whales, and Worms: exploring marine mammal parasitology
    Smith College
    The goal of this research is to identify parasitic infections in marine mammals like seals, whales, and dolphins. We hope to aid in diagnosis and treatment of these infections using DNA sequences. Molecular biological techniques will allow us to monitor these infections.
