Andy Montgomery is pursuing a PhD in Marine Sciences from the University of Georgia. He is a 5th year graduate student in Mandy Joye’s lab. Andy studies how the dynamic chemistry of the ocean affects microbial activity. More specifically, he studies how carbon and nitrogen availability dictate microbial processes such as methane or ammonia oxidation. … Continued
Dr. Jason Westrich is a postdoctoral researcher working under the direction of Mandy Joye at the University of Georgia. Jason has been working in aquatic microbial ecology for the past decade investigating microbial structure and function in both marine and freshwater environments. Jason did his PhD at the Odum School of Ecology examining the role of trace metal … Continued
¡Hola! Quiero compartir parte de mi experiencia a bordo del R/V Falkor. No es solo mi primera vez en el Falkor, sino además mi primera vez a bordo de un buque de investigación. Junto con el Dr. Jorge Cortés y la Dra. Odalisca Breedy, formo parte del equipo del Centro de Investigación en Ciencias del … Continued
Hello! I want to share part of my experience aboard the Falkor. It is not only my first time on this ship, but also my first time aboard a research vessel at all. Together with Dr. Jorge Cortés and Dr. Odalisca Breedy, I am part of the team of the Center for Research in Marine … Continued
“Advancing new technologies is a huge part of advancing the science. So when new tools come online, it is really exciting to be one of the first to work with them, take them out to sea, and ask new questions.” Check out this week’s #CostaRicanDeep video update to see some of the spectacular sights, as … Continued
Mandy Joye is an educator, a deep ocean explorer, and an ocean and environmental advocate. She holds the Athletic Association Distinguished Professorship in Arts and Sciences and is a Professor in the Department of Marine Sciences at the University of Georgia. She received her B.Sc. degree in Biology from the University of North Carolina at Chapel … Continued
The Gulf of California is a young ocean undergoing changes including active seafloor spreading, early rifting, and large-scale hydrothermal activity. The rare combination of geological dynamics present in the Gulf of California makes it an ideal place to advance our understanding of deep ocean hydrothermal ecosystems.
Jessica Mitchell is in her fifth year of graduate school at Harvard University in Prof. Peter R. Girguis’s lab. She loves thinking about all of the amazing things microbes can do. For example, symbiotic associations with microbes can expand the metabolic repertoire of other organisms, influence local geochemistry and the ecosystems in which they live. … Continued
