The summer necropsy team has been busy dissecting and identifying parasites. This summer we have six new necropsy technicians (Carmella Bonato, Skylar Davidson, Erin Hobday, Hannah Garner, Jasmine Groves, and Clara Hassan). All of the new members are fully supported by the awards they earned! Specifically, NSF RAHSS (Clara), UROP (Carmella, Skylar, Hannah), EBIO scholarship (Jasmine), and BSI (Erin). Additionally, the necropsy team has three prior necropsy technicians from the 2021 season (Jamie Curtis, Natalie Pelton, and Rachel Seyler). Rachel and Jamie are both funded by NSF earned grants as well! As the season starts a bit slow it’s a perfect time for training, practice dissections, and spring cleaning. Stay tuned through the summer to hear details about which parasites are abundant after last year's drought.
