Our goals are to expose students to the diversity of life on a barrier coral reef and give students hands on experience with collecting data in the field.

We’re currently studying the development of the locomotor muscles of spinner dolphins and beluga whales and the oxidative properties of Arctic seal locomotor muscles.
