Biggs Lab

Charter Day at UOG!

A total of 22 samples collected today by the Saipan team including Dr. Biggs, his student Julia Berg, Acting Director of BECQ Dave Benevente, and his intern Katie. Special thanks to the CNMI Division of Fish and Wildlife for their help! We have had such great support during this expedition. Only two days left!

Collection of Genetic material continues in lovely Rota, CNMI. On to Saipan tomorrow!

We came, we saw, we sampled. We arrived in Rota today, and were able to get in the water this afternoon. Lots of T.maxima and T. crocea. Such a beautiful place!

On January 31, 2018; the Marine Lab partnered with University of Guam Sea Grant for a public program on Jellyfish. Bigg's Lab student and Sea Grant Fellow Julia Berg led part of the hands-on activities, outside on our saltwater research Lanai. https://www.postguam.com/community/the_scoop/biologists-bust-jellyfish-myths/article_3f661088-048d-11e8-9274-b7c7ad874ad3.html
