SURFs up 2017: Rhode Island undergrads in research
Research fellow: Olivia Sherman Hometown: Cumberland, RI School: Salve Regina University Major: Biology As a junior last year, Olivia Sherman took a genetics course with Associate Professor J.D. Swanson, learned that he had an open spot in his lab, and scored a RI EPSCoR Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowship. This summer, Sherman is back at full-time […]

Research fellow: Gabrielle Kuba Hometown: West Haven, Conn. School: Salve Regina University Major: Biology Those large, stinky mats of green algae that cover the beaches and smother the water in the heat of summer? Gabrielle Kuba, a rising senior, has spent the past three years helping investigate the source of the harmful algal blooms in […]

Cork Brook in Scituate, R.I., isn’t as far inland as you can get from the fabled coastline that gives the Ocean State its name. But, it might as well be. The stream meanders through protected forest, a rural outpost off the beaten path of the summer tourist throngs, making it a perfect reference, or pristine, […]

“That first summer with SURF gave me the opportunity to see what doing research was really like. Eight hours a day, five days a week. It almost felt like I wasn’t doing research before that point.” Megan Sylvia Senior; biology Salve Regina University SURF student; 2014, 2015 Megan Sylvia, who will graduate from Salve Regina […]

Much like the sudden onslaught of weeds overtaking your garden, algal blooms can transform seemingly out of nowhere from coastal nuisance to massive ecosystem threat. Groundbreaking research from a Rhode Island team of scientists now reveals critical new details about the life cycle of these macroalgal blooms that will aid in better management and protection […]
