Ongoing



I have been working to include more marine microbiology activities in my Marine Science curriculum. These include experiments similar to those conducted on board the Polar Duke during my Antarctic experience. I have stayed in touch with my PI, Wade Jefferies, and have tried to keep up to date on the publications dealing with his work in Antarctica.



I have also tried to incorporate, whenever appropriate, polar related activities into my Horticulture curriculum. During the second semester of this year we will be working with high efficiency composting and hydroponics growing, trying to simulate conditions of extreme space and energy limitations.
