19 January - 22 February 2026 #LivingBioreactors Each night in the open ocean, hundreds of millions of tons of fish, shrimps, jellies, and other animals rise from the deep to feed near the surface. Then, at dawn, they descend hundreds of meters to avoid predators. This is the largest animal migration on Earth, and a … Continued
Thomas Csillag Finger is a Biological Sciences student at the University of São Paulo. He was selected as a 2023 Rise Fellow for his project Vaccinou, which aims to reverse Brazil’s declining vaccination rates, alongside research exploring the links between healthcare crises and weak environmental policies. His scientific work centers on ecophysiology, particularly on how … Continued
Sydney Wilkinson is a Postdoctoral Researcher at the University of Miami who studies how organic matter moves through aquatic food webs using biochemical tracers. Her work connects species behavior, ecosystem change, and carbon cycling, advancing efforts to understand biogeochemical dynamics in coastal and marine environments.
I am a marine scientist from Mexico with a focus on zooplankton ecology and the study of food web interactions. I earned my undergraduate degree in Marine Biology from Universidad del Mar (UMAR) in Mexico. I completed a Master’s in Marine Resource Management at CICIMAR-IPN, where I studied zooplankton ecology and identified copepod species. I … Continued
My name is Sidney Trimble and I am from Kentucky. I received my bachelor’s degree in Biology from Kentucky Christian University in 2020. I completed my master’s degree in Marine Science at Nova Southeastern University in Dr. Rosanna Milligan’s lab where I worked as her lab manager. My thesis focused on estimating the carbon flux … Continued
Rachel is a PhD student in Dr. Anela Choy’s lab at Scripps Institution of Oceanography at UC San Diego. Her thesis implements a variety of biochemical tracers (e.g., mercury concentrations and carbon, nitrogen, and mercury stable isotopes) to examine the environmental and ecological drivers of mercury bioaccumulation in deep pelagic organisms of the North Pacific. … Continued
Pierre Marrec is a Marine Research Associate at the Graduate School of Oceanography, University of Rhode Island, with expertise in ocean biogeochemistry and plankton ecology. His research is primarily observation-based, and he has spent significant time at sea aboard research vessels. Marrec joined the OMI project in October 2024 as a part-time data manager and … Continued
