Dr. Ana Garcia Vedrenne completed her Ph.D at UC Santa Barbara in Ecology, Evolution and Marine Biology and Dr. Maura Palacios Mejia obtained her Ph.D at Texas A&M University in Ecology & Evolution.
Together they will contribute their expertise to develop courses for the new Environmental DNA for Science Investigation and Education Program and pursue innovative eDNA research.
Today, they were initiated by collecting sediment samples from the Mildred E. Mathias Botanical Garden at UCLA.
