The Jellyfish Life Cycle
By: Rebecca Helm, Brown University EPSCoR Graduate Student in Casey Dunn’s lab (Follow Helm on her blog and at Deep Sea News to read about all things jelly and the great ocean beyond) Every year New England beaches are invaded with sticky, stringy jellies, drifting leisurely through summer weekends, leaving painful reminders in their wake. But why is it […]

For University of Rhode Island student Timo Kuester, trying to find a career in medicine back home in Germany was not working out. Little did he know, an online job test would set him on a path to study chemical engineering, and join a statewide project examining the effects of climate change on Narragansett Bay.
